"Have substance, will challenge you, actually can help you create a great culture

I work in a combination of school and sports settings as a mental performance coach. I find a lot of schools and coaches are drawn to what's easy when it comes to culture. As a result, they reach for the fluff on bookshelves- makes them feel good but doesn't really do anything. This book is not that. It's well researched and well explained. With some effort, you can draw some really great concepts and tangible ideas to help create and work to maintain a great culture wherever you may work.

The stories are well told and connect well with the points made. If I had to pick one negative, the book mentions education several times without providing any specific stories from the education world. That said, the lessons learned can clearly be applied to education. It's one of my favorite books I've read on culture/leadership, and I plan on recommending it to whoever will listen. We need more books like this!"

Benjamin Ehrlich

"I am a big fan of Amy's work over the years. This work provides a research-based way to think about how fear inhibits productivity and what leaders and HR professionals can do to make change.

Personally, I found the research side stronger than some of the examples used, but that may be due to my familiarity with those examples. I highly recommend the book. If you had to put together a top 10 list of things leaders need to do to get terrific performance and especially to ensure all employees are comfortable sharing critical information, driving fear out would be on my list."
