About the book

Cort Dial's debut combines memoir with a leadership manual and argues that peak business performance comes from embracing people's humanity rather than stifling it. Its stories range from gritty chemical plants and Middle Eastern deserts to exclusive executive suites. Along the way Dial introduces a framework for inspiring and influencing others that he calls All-In Leadership. Dial also reminds readers that many of history's greatest men and women were first seen as heretics. The Globe and Mail ranked it first on one of its annual lists of business books, and it also received a Gold Nonfiction Book Award.

jumbleThink founder Michael Woodward liked that Dial pairs his story, from corporate work to starting his own venture, with lessons readers can apply, and said its core message is leadership.

Michael Woodward (CEO & Founder/jumbleThink)

This book is Cort’s memoir. Through it he tells his story of working in the corporate world and then starting his own entrepreneurial journey. I love this book because he is intentional not only to tell his story but to give lessons you can apply to your own life while telling those stories. The core message of the book is on leadership.
