What This Book Is About

A new lens on leadership team effectiveness

Every senior leader faces the same pull: protect your function or prioritize the whole enterprise. This book argues the best teams don't choose—they integrate both.

1

Silos aren't the problem

How teams work together is. The real issue is the behaviors and mindsets that prevent collaboration.

2

Tension is permanent

The pull between functional and enterprise leadership isn't a problem to solve—it's an ongoing reality to manage.

3

Both/And thinking

High-performing teams don't choose between their function and the enterprise. They learn to hold both simultaneously.

4

Behavior drives results

Meetings, decisions, and communication patterns shape team performance more than strategy alone.

Who It's For

Written for senior leaders and executive teams

If you lead a function while also sitting on the leadership team, this book was written for you—and your colleagues.

This book is for you if you struggle with:

  • Slow decision-making across the leadership team

  • Misalignment, politics, and turf protection

  • Balancing team priorities vs. company priorities
