Soozey Johnstone - one of Australia's most experienced and respected business and team advisors - has finally written her first book, I Am The Problem. The book brilliantly reveals the roadblocks that hold teams back - roadblocks of character, team dynamics, or missing skills - and the roadblocks in ourselves.
I Am The Problem is the simplest, most insightful and easiest-to-implement book on dysfunctional executive teams - how to make success happen more often and more easily, and rediscovering your organisational "mojo".? The book is designed to be a very practical "hands on" primer for anyone facing apparently intractable organisational obstacles, whether or not the organisation is recognising or facing up to those obstacles - yet. As a Director or Manager, you can choose to act on any of the 9 obstacles, or just one, or a few, or all of them. Acting on all of them would be a genuinely transformative move. Acting on any of the advice in the book will make you happier, and your organisation much more functional and successful. Each chapter includes at the end a simple to follow "To Do" list to make implementing positive change easy and painless. I Am The Problem is the best thirty bucks you will ever invest in the success of your organisation, and your personal well-being. Many business books focus on personal behaviour, however, I Am The Problem concentrates on the behavioural self-awareness of the leadership team, and the impact that has on the success of a business. I Am The Problem is packed with valuable tools, insights and stories that you can apply immediately to deliver real lasting benefits for you, your teams and your business.... but you would expect us to say that - which is why we thought you should hear what others that have read the book had to say.
Soozey Johnstone has written one of the most intelligent, practical and deeply honest books that I have ever read. The complexity of being successful in a business of any size has been broken into overcoming 9 key obstacles. To do this will require inner contemplation, group engagement and some seriously honest conversations. The end result will be extraordinary. I can't recommend Soozey's book highly enough.
