He draws on insights from leaders, known and not-so-well-known who use soccer thinking to succeed. This is not just another book on how to be a great leader by a famous person. This is a management and leadership book by, and for, the rest of us.

The modern world is networked and always working. Organizations no longer have the luxury of time. Expertise is no longer confined to a couple of smart guys in corner offices, reviewing information to which only they have access and issuing instructions through layers of middle-men to nine-to-fivers who carry out the dictates and feed paper back up the chain, awaiting the next set of instructions. Today’s successful organization is decentralized and never stops moving. In fact, organizational success is a lot like soccer. Every player is both a specialist and generalist. Responsibility on the field is distributed, and everyone on the team works for everyone else. Communication among players is constant

Emily is a career-driven thirtysomething with big ambitions and a young family. She is making an impact as a manager at a tech company, but after being passed up for multiple promotions, she finds herself at a loss for how to improve.

Emily needs direction, and David is the perfect mentor.

Growing Influence offers readers both practical advice on how to develop leadership skills and a relatable account of one woman’s growth by applying the principles in the book. Unlike nonfiction business books or business memoirs, this story is a true business fable that is both impactful and transformative.

Work worth doing always has a hard part.

In any results-driven activity, there are defining moments. That point in time between getting started and getting finished, when things become hard and aspirations for achievement get seriously challenged. When things become hard, people can feel stuck, and performance can stagnate.

People who advance performance rarely stay stuck.

They accept the stretch associated with achievement and put their skills to work. The results we seek only get realized when we pursue what we care about and commit ourselves to the moments that matter. Easier said than done when difficulties arise that can quickly derail the effort.

If you are a leader who is feeling stuck or looking to advance existing levels of success, this book will prove invaluable. With content that is practical, thought-provoking and performance orientated, Definable Moments is one of those rare books that will change how you work, lead and live.
