How to Get Yourself, Your Team and Your Organisation Further Than You Ever Thought Possible

The Book of Leadership (Revised Edition)

We all know what it's like to hold back from making a decisive move, offering our most candid feedback, or even advocating for ourselves because it was easier and safer to take the well-travelled path - but these are also the hinge points that transform reputations, relationships, and results.Drawing on a landmark seven-year study of 34,000 people, JP Pawliw and Bill Benjamin reveal a consistent pattern: in high-stakes moments people hold back an average of 7.56% of what can make the crucial difference between 'taking your shot' and regret at failing to do so. Rounded, they call this gap the 'Last 8%'. The book explores the brain function reasons for this gap and equips readers with effective tools to close the gap. Blending neuroscience, behavioural research, and stories from astronauts, Olympic athletes, Fortune 100 executives, and frontline professionals, THE LAST 8% provides a practical roadmap for acting with decisiveness in pressure situations.It teaches individuals to regulate their biology in the heat of the moment, while also offering leaders a proprietary framework - the Last 8% Culture Map - to build teams and organisations where candour, accountability and trust drive performance.
