what to expect around the fire
STORIES From leaders across business, philanthropy, education, and the arts who refused the trade-off, many of them Campfire podcast guests.
ARTISTIC INSPIRATION Original verses from my work as the hip-hop artist Ahmen, because some ideas land better on a beat.
ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS Practices you can bring to your team the next morning, and keep using long after the offsite ends.
WHY I WROTE THIS

I led by the old rules before I broke them. Sacrifice now, recover later. Pick the mission or pick yourself.

The longer I led, the clearer it became that the choice itself was the problem, and that the leaders and teams doing the most remarkable work had quietly stopped making it.

This book is our story, and a blueprint for anyone ready to stop choosing.

I've always described this book as a campfire conversation in the middle of a tough journey. Around the fire are your three best friends: the one who pushes you to your edge, the one who can always relate, and the one who always has good advice. This book is that conversation.

WHAT'S INSIDE

FROM THE HOUSE WE INHERITED to the one we build.

part one THE HOUSE WE INHERITED Why the leadership model most of us were handed keeps producing burnout, disengagement, and ideas that never see daylight.
part two A NEW PARADIGM Dismantling the false choice, owning your manifesto, and why joy belongs in the work.
part three THE BLUEPRINT Three pillars that let wellbeing and performance rise together.
ANTHEM A shared story worth singing.
FLOW Room to grow, create, and do your best work.
ENSEMBLE Everyone leading, together.
part four FUTURE PROOF How to keep harmony alive long after the offsite ends, so it becomes the way your people lead every day, not a moment they remember.
WHY IT HOLDS UP

NOT A THEORY. A PRACTICE.

Choose Harmony is built on the evidence, tested in the field, and measured the way the work is lived: wellbeing and performance together, never one at the expense of the other.

20% of employees worldwide are engaged at work. Among managers, it's 22%.
$10T in lost productivity from low engagement, about 9% of global GDP.

GROUNDED IN THE RESEARCH

Data on engagement, burnout, and performance that shows why the trade-off fails, and what happens when leaders stop making it.

TESTED IN THE FIELD

Two decades of leading through turnarounds, acquisitions, and movements, and the practices that held up when the stakes were real.

LIVED BY REAL LEADERS

Stories from leaders across business, philanthropy, education, and the arts who chose harmony, and what changed for their people and their results.
