Six months ago today, Stop Managing, Start Leading was published. Grateful for the feedback, reviews, and, most importantly, how people are using it in practice. It’s also been put forward for the Business Book Awards 2026. A small ask:

A small milestone I’m pleased to share. Stop Managing, Start Leading has been entered into the Business Book Awards 2026. Great to be alongside so many strong titles and authors. If it helps sales leaders build better environments for their teams, it’s doing its job. #BBA2026 #SalesLeadership

If you’ve read Stop Managing, Start Leading, I’d genuinely love to hear what resonated, or even what challenged you. Reviews and comments help bring the book to leaders who might benefit from it, so if you’re open to sharing your thoughts, I’d really appreciate it. 🙏

Contrary to popular belief, it isn’t always raining in Manchester. Although it was a bit gloomy and wet when I arrived in town this morning (all windswept). Had the privilege of talking at the Supporting Women in Sales event — the first of many inperson events this busy January. Happy New Year!

It’s a theme I build on in Stop Managing, Start Leading: leaders shouldn’t carry the load alone. Which type of support do you already have, and which one do you need more of right now? #StopManagingStartLeading #SalesLeadership #Resilience

Early’ish start and a coffee at Piccadilly. Edinburgh next. Catching up with a client I normally see on Zoom - and a few others flying in. Finalising January’s Atlanta RKO. Funny how a quick in-person chat can unlock more in 10 minutes than an hour online. #StopManagingStartLeading #SalesLeaders

My book Stop Managing, Start Leading was published two months ago today. Thank you to everyone who’s picked up a copy. If you enjoyed it, a short review would really help others discover it too. Grateful for all the support so far. 🙏

Ange Postecoglou lasted 39 days at Forest. Different philosophy, same players, no alignment. In leadership or sales, it’s the same truth: you can’t build a new system on old habits. Culture doesn’t change in 39 days. I unpack this idea in my latest newsletter: www.linkedin.com/pulse/you-do...

"I really enjoyed reading this book" "Amazing book 📖" "Helpful book" 5-Star reviews all-round on Amazon. But don't just take my Mum, my eldest daughter, and one of my nephew's word for it, check out my book for yourself. Have a great weekend everyone 😄

Unashamed plug for my book. Too many leaders still dread their forecast calls - endless prep meetings, more scrutiny, less impact. We don’t need more pressure. We need better leadership. That’s what Stop Managing, Start Leading is all about. #StopManagingStartLeading #SalesLeadership

The buzz of launch day has just sunk in… and now comes the bit that matters most. If you do grab a copy of Stop Managing, Start Leading, I’d love to know what you think. Reviews, reflections, or even a quick DM, it all helps and means a lot. #StopManagingStartLeading #SalesLeadership #BookReviews

Leaving Sweden after two days with senior sales leaders working through change. Not just strategy - mindset. Great reminder: You don’t lead change by piling on more. You lead it by shifting how people think, feel, and act. More in the book soon. 📸 sorry, schoolboy humour, couldn’t resist.

Why do so many sales managers struggle? It’s not capability—it’s where they’re focused. Too many are stuck in rescue mode. Reacting. Firefighting. “Managing.”

In 30 days, a new chapter opens for me (pun fully intended). My first book—Stop Managing, Start Leading—launches on 30 Sept. Still feels surreal. But I’m proud of it. It’s the book I wish I’d had when I stepped into sales leadership.

Hi. Like many of you, I’m an exile from the other place, and yes, I’ll only ever call it Twitter. I’m hoping this becomes a bit of a community, somewhere we can swap thoughts, share what’s working, and maybe even have a laugh while we’re at it.
