Dr Bill Lattimer, former partner with management consultants Accenture

“I am so grateful for this book! It is practical, accessible and wise. Matt has done a superb job distilling his years of leadership experience into easy-to-follow headlines and top tips, with great examples and research. So much of the time, the call of leadership feels overwhelming and sometimes beyond me. What should I do next? Have I got the necessary skills? Can I manage? Have I got what it takes? But when I read this book, above everything else, I am left with the overall relief that leadership is ‘doable’. I am given a way of breaking down the overall task of leadership into bite-sized, clear and achievable rules of thumb, none of which need be beyond me. Armed with this toolkit, I am equipped to know what to do and how to go about doing it, and excited to give it a go. Thank you!”
Archie Coates, Vicar, St Peter’s Brighton
