Do Sweat the Small Stuff

**Shortlisted for the The Leadership Book of the Year Award 2024** You may think it’s small stuff, but it has a big impact. Great leadership is about people: connecting with them and inspiring them to perform at their best. But leaders under pressure tend to focus on tasks, to-do lists and deadlines. The result? Teams are disengaged, performance and productivity are below expectations, morale is low. Building relationships isn’t a one-off task. It happens through every single interaction, and we aren’t paying those everyday moments nearly enough attention. Do Sweat the Small Stuff challenges you to notice and own the profound impact of your micro-interactions. To explore how your speaking and listening, your habits and your behaviours affect those around you, whether you realize or not. Finally, it reveals how to reinvent those interactions to reshape how you show up as a leader and build trusting, productive relationships with your people. Sarah Langslow distils more than two decades of hands-on experience building effective leadership skills and behaviours in the corporate and sporting world and as an executive coach into an actionable plan for sustainable transformation.
