Publisher's summary

In the spirit of The One Thing and Start with Why, this guide provides the "missing link" for entrepreneurs to generate fast, sustainable growth, get out of the weeds, and build their A-teams from the inside out.

Annie Hyman Pratt's family business, The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, consisted of 7 domestic "mom and pop shops" when she took it over. In just 7 years' time, she scaled it by more than 10x, turning it into an international brand of 70+ stores before leading the company through a highly successful sale.

Two decades later, Annie Pratt is a top-tier business consultant whose client list of 50+ companies and entrepreneurs includes Hay House, Jeff Walker, Gabrielle Bernstein, Susan Peirce Thompson, Erico Rocha, and Christian Mickelsen. In this new book, she puts the strategy that's transformed their businesses into your hands too.

Most business books on shelves today focus on either the structure part (systems and processes) or the culture part (visions and values). What's missing? The all-important "people part"—the often hidden, often misunderstood area of a business where team members and team leaders interact and have their greatest impact. And in a world where the rate of change is increasing exponentially, with burnout and overwhelm at epidemic levels, it's more essential than ever to get this part right.

As Annie reveals the power and promise of this missing link, you'll discover:

• The secret of self-leadership—the way you show up as an individual in your work and how to perform effectively in the face of pressure or stress
• The key to effective teamwork—the way team members interact, especially in times of challenge or change
• How these two abilities together create the conditions for a business to perform at its best—and for leaders to have the positive impact they desire
• A wealth of practical tools and techniques for creative thinking, decision making, problem solving, negotiating, and more

Good book too slow

The concepts on this book are great but it was so boring to listen it. The author uses the same tone the hole book

Phenomenal book!

This book is essential for entrepreneurs, leaders, and team members to listen to and study. I bought a hard copy too to read carefully and use as a reference book. It has already helped me to better serve my clients and level up my self leadership and people skills. 💯

She’s the real deal

I had the privilege of sitting next to Annie Pratt at a dinner and I learned more about business casually talking shop for an hour with her than I have from a lot of day-long seminars.

There’s good reason: she’s done it. She scaled Coffee Bean from 7 locations to 70 locations, then through to a successful sale of the enterprise.

Since then she’s helped dozens of other businesses. More specifically, she’s helped their *leaders,* often the Owner-CEO. She helps Entrepreneurs with that oh-so-troubling transition from leading through grit and hustle to leading through, well, leadership.

When I saw her book was available I dropped everything so I could listen immediately to her book.

I recommend you do the same.

As someone in HR this is a best case scenario book

the book is fine and probably for individuals stepping into leadership or human resource type roles for the first time there's a lot to digest but for anyone that has been in these types of roles for even a year it's repetitive information
