A Business Fable for When Your People Aren't Broken, But Your System Is

An Evidence-Based Guide to Performance Leadership

Armstrong’s Handbook of Performance Management

Strategy is useless if the strategist is compromised.
Most business books focus on strategy, intelligence, or motivation. This one starts where outcomes are actually decided.
Drawing on patterns observed across more than one hundred founders and senior leaders, this book examines the forces that quietly shape performance over time.
This is not a book about working harder, thinking faster, or becoming exceptional. There are no "10 steps" to achieving your goals or self-help tools to get you going. Instead, it offers a frank analysis of the internal distortions that cause capable leaders to make predictable mistakes when pressure rises. These patterns are not culture or region-specific; they are human-centric.
Through clear analysis, the book reveals why intelligence narrows under stress, why motivation fades without structure, why ego distorts judgment, and why unexamined beliefs quietly run organisations long after a new strategy has been declared.
Written for leaders, founders, executives, and professionals operating in high-responsibility environments, this is a sober framework for durability rather than drama, and for governance rather than intensity.
Inside, You Will Discover:
· The operational advantage that separates durable leaders from those who burn out.
· The hidden mechanism that allows unexamined beliefs to hijack strategy.
· Why the most dangerous form of ego is the one you least suspect.
· The link between identity stability and your ability to scale under pressure.
· Why traditional motivation fails in high-stakes environments, and what replaces it.
· The counter-intuitive method for reshaping unhelpful beliefs without "self-help" fluff.
· The real cost of success, and why not everyone is prepared to pay it.
This book explains why some leaders endure while others, equally capable, slowly deteriorate.

The Quiet Advantage - Why Some Leaders Endure Under Pressure While Others Collapse

We are often told to trust our instincts. But what if those instincts are quietly working against us?

Unseen Leadership: Interrupt the Instincts That Block Your Success challenges what leaders have long been rewarded for. Through decades advising and coaching senior executives, author Amy J. Clark has seen firsthand how instinctive habits that once drove achievement now create blind spots that block progress.

Through powerful stories, insight, and reflection, the book introduces the CARE Leadership Activator(TM)-Curiosity, Adaptability, Resilience, and Empathy, a new measurement of leadership designed for an unpredictable future. These are not soft skills; they are the strategic edge leaders need to stay credible, trusted, and influential when conditions change faster than comfort allows.

This is the shift no one taught you to trust-how to move beyond instinct, interrupt old patterns, and lead with deeper awareness and impact.

Unseen Leadership invites you to redefine how you measure success and lead at the level you are built for.

Interrupt the Instincts That Block Your Success

A Woman's Guide to Making Brave Decisions

Who You Are Matters

Lead with humanity and end the era of management mediocrity. If you've ever vowed to be a better boss than the ones you've had, this book is for you. James (J.R.) Lowry and Daniela De Luca provide an essential roadmap for first-time managers and emerging leaders who refuse to repeat decades of management mediocrity. Drawing on Lowry's experience as a former US Air Force officer, McKinsey partner, and C-suite executive and De Luca's research on career advancement, this comprehensive guide shows how ditching outdated command-and-control habits-and leading with empathy instead-unlocks stronger performance, trust, and engagement in today's teams. Nearly 70 percent of American workers are disengaged, according to Gallup-a clear sign that traditional management approaches are no longer working. In response, Lowry and De Luca offer a practical framework that balances the art and science of management. They reveal the most common misconceptions and mistakes managers make, explain how the manager's role is evolving, and address the mental and emotional preparation required to lead well (even on hard days). Through concrete, actionable practices, Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had shows you how to manage with humanity, both in team practices like delegation and coaching, and in challenges such as office politics and burnout. The result is higher team engagement, stronger productivity, and a workplace culture where people can genuinely thrive. Becoming the leader you always wanted to work for is within your reach. With a relatable blend of research, stories, and advice, Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had is a clarion call to move beyond the "management meh" that plagues many organizations worldwide. J.R. Lowry and Daniela De Luca invite leaders to reclaim the human element of their work and, in doing so, change their own lives and the lives of those they lead.

A People-First Guide to Management

Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had

Global Health Diplomacy

There has been an increasing movement to place results at the heart of the agenda for social investments and development. Though development has a compelling value proposition a year of life can often be saved for a few hundred dollars there is skepticism to its ability to measure and manage programs for results. It is this skepticism which is at the heart of debates on the future of development. Managing Development for Results describes the results agenda in development, measurement and management approaches, and challenges on the ground. It is an easily accessible book which provides a comprehensive view on the innovative approach used to demonstrate compelling development results. The first section of the book covers the history and key components of the results agenda. The second section assesses how this is put into practice with innovative examples from global initiatives, foundations, civil society, private sector and country case studies. Finally, the book assesses the future role of the results-based agenda for a wide variety of development actors. It argues that results provide a "common currency" to coordinate and focus increasingly diverse partners on the core value of development, and communicate this to a wider audience. How results are built into development programs and the future development agenda will be illustrated as well. This book aims to target a wide audience in development, practitioners internationally and locally, management, business and philanthropy and those interested in international relations. It would also aim to appeal to a general audience interested in the future of development and whether it can achieve compelling results.

The need for resilience at organisational, department and individual level has never been greater. Geopolitical conflict, climate change, supply chain disruption and political instability are just a handful of the risks that leaders must mitigate to ensure stable business operation and optimum effectiveness. Project resilience refers to the ability of a project or initiative to anticipate, adapt and recover from unexpected challenges, disruptions or uncertainties. It involves the capacity to withstand shocks, maintain functionality in the face of adversity, and quickly recover to a stable state. Resilient projects underpin resilient organisations; a resilient organisation produces sustainable competitive advantage. This book offers a structured framework - the Project Resilience Maturity Model - to assess and enhance resilience in organisations. The authors begin by considering different approaches to project resilience, and by identifying potential tensions therein. In the second part, methods of sustaining project resilience are examined, focusing on the perspective of the project manager, personal responsibility and the role of leadership. The latter part of the textbook provides practical tools and applications to assess and enhance project resilience. Throughout, the authors employ a pedagogical framework designed to ensure maximum effectiveness for students and practitioners. Chapters are organised to reflect the evolution of project resilience maturity, moving from early-stage compliance to strategic integration and transformative resilience. Concepts are introduced in a sequential order that builds on what has come before, with Key Takeaways summarising each chapter's most critical points. Fictional case studies illustrate how topics can be been implemented in a complex project management setting, while Key and Dormant Tensions highlight potential blind spots. Demystifying complex topics without sacrificing scholarly rigour, Project Resilience provides you with a strategic approach to ensuring projects are well-equipped to withstand uncertainties and adapt to dynamic conditions. It is the perfect textbook to support advanced Project Management and Organisational Resilience courses, and to provide practical methods for leading responsible organisations.

Navigating Tensions from Control to Transformation

Project Resilience

From the former dean of Harvard Business School comes a richly researched examination of the CEO role--and a pathway to succeeding in the job.Millions of ambitious professionals aspire to lead a company and one day hold the title of chief executive officer, not just for the prestige but because they know the impact they can make from that role. If you've worked in a company led by a great CEO, you may have experienced the way a gifted leader can energize an organization and bring a sense of joy, meaning, and momentum to our workdays.Yet despite the hold the role has on popular imagination, relatively few people have a solid understanding of what CEOs actually do all day, and what behaviors differentiate those who perform the job well from those who do it poorly.Nitin Nohria, distinguished professor and former dean of Harvard Business School, pulls back the curtain on the top role and helps aspirants understand what it's really like to lead a company. Drawing from a quarter century of biannual HBS New CEO Workshops that thousands have attended, and a deep reservoir of research, Nohria distills what he and his colleagues have learned about how the best CEOs approach their work. Topics include how those executives allocate their time, communicate, drive strategy and execution, infuse purpose, shape culture, manage stakeholders, and so much more.The CEO is an accessible, enduring instruction manual filled with timeless principles that will prepare leaders for the ultimate success.
