Tamsen Webster, author, Find Your Red Thread
"The Lovable Leader is the leadership book that we really need. Not only does it address the responsibilities of leadership such as goal setting and strategy, but it also provides clear instructions about how to manage people, not as tools of the organization but as individuals worthy of care and respect. It's the handbook every new manager should have on their desk."
Dorie Clark, Wall Street Journal bestselling author, The LongGame; executive education faculty, Duke University Fuqua School of Business
"The Lovable Leader is the book I wish every new manager read before their first day. Jeff Gibbard provides the complete set of tools that leaders need to build effective and collaborative teams, and the book is rich with both practical frameworks and clear examples. Unlike many leadership books that focus exclusively on goals and results, I appreciate how this book takes the time to highlight safety, care, trust, and inclusion as critical aspects of effective leadership."
Robbie Samuels, author, Small List, Big Results and Croissants vs. Bagels
"Jeff Gibbard's The Lovable Leader is a step-by-step playbook for helping new managers become the most effective leaders possible. Best of all, the plethora of lessons throughout the book are focused on how to be our best selves while leading others."
