Thank You, Sarah: Most Leaders Miss This. The Ones Who Don't Are Unforgettable.

What makes someone unforgettable as a leader? When Vivian Hughes entered the most difficult thirteen months of her life, her manager, Sarah, became the steady presence that allowed her to keep showing up, without ever asking Vivian to pretend she was not struggling. > Thank You, Sarah is Vivian's tribute to the kind of leadership people never forget and a challenge to every leader who wants to build a workplace where people feel safe enough to tell the truth. Through one employee's personal experience, Vivian explores psychological safety, individualized leadership, and the difference between treating people fairly and treating them the same. Grounded in more than three decades of leadership development and organizational culture experience, this book calls leaders to move beyond outdated, one-size-fits-all management. It offers a timely reminder that people do their best work when they are seen as whole human beings. >More than a book to read, this is a book to work through. At the close, readers move through "Thank You, { }, You're Unforgettable," a six-phase reflection exercise designed to move insight into action: Forgiveness, Declaration, Commitment, Cues, the Mirror Question, and a final charge to write the letter you hope one of your people would one day write about you, the leadership you intend to be known for. With prompts for self-assessment and intention-setting embedded throughout every chapter, Thank You, Sarah doesn't just ask who you want to become as a leader; it gives you the space to decide. With a foreword by Courtney Ramsey, CSP(R), author of Quit Hitting Snooze and Share Your Genius.
