SECOND BOOK
Lead Like Nobody's Watching
What Ted Lasso, Miranda Bailey, and Logan Roy can teach real managers that your last performance review couldn't.
What Ted Lasso, Miranda Bailey, and Logan Roy can teach real managers that your last performance review couldn't.
Eighteen managers, from a starship captain to a sandwich shop chef. Answer thirteen questions about how you actually lead, and find out which one you are — the exemplars and the cautionary tales both count.
Every leader has met Michael Scott. Not the man. The instinct. Fiction doesn't invent leadership — it amplifies it, taking the patterns that take a real manager a decade to notice and turning them up until you can't miss them in a single scene.
Lead Like Nobody's Watching takes eighteen fictional leaders, the exemplars and the cautionary tales in equal measure, and asks what they actually reveal about managing people under real constraints. This isn't a book that tells you to be Ted Lasso or avoid being Logan Roy. It's smaller and harder than that: a set of sharper mirrors, aimed at the version of these patterns you're already living — on either side of the desk.
Belief as a management strategy, and where it runs out of road.
The cost of loyalty you have to re-earn every single day.
Standards enforced without apology, and without cruelty.
Why the quietest person in the room can hold the most authority.
A management style built entirely around never saying the hard thing.
The unglamorous, underpaid work of holding a team together.
