60% of A+ players who move to management are ready to quit within their first 24 months.
With little to no preparation, performers get moved into leadership roles and are expected to thrive—but the opposite happens:

•They struggle to manage the people who used to be their peers.
•They follow the bad examples of their predecessors.
•They fight to keep up with the increased workload, responsibilities, and admin work.
•They end up feeling like failures.

But it doesn't have to be that way. Performance Coach Jake Thompson has worked with companies and leaders around the world to create winning cultures. In Lead Better Now, he offers practical insights and strategies you can implement today to reshape your leadership experience and start driving the positive change you want to see in your team, department, and organization.

•Develop the right mindset for leadership
•Manage your time and team and get better results
•Connect and communicate effectively to create a culture of success

Whether you're a new manager trying to find your way and become a leader that people want to follow or you're a C-suite executive who recognizes that you need better training and systems for your leaders, Lead Better Now is for you.
