Book Description | I love it . . . it hooked me right in . . . A fantastic book. -- Chris Evans This is a truly refreshing, captivating and important book that shifted my perception on a topic I thought I knew! A must read. -- Steven Bartlett, entrepreneur and host of 'The Diary of a CEO' A fascinating and important pushback against the narrow, joy-eroding version of 'resilience' that would leave us to sink or swim alone, Fortitude is an indispensable guide to a more energising, human, and effective approach to working and thriving in a post-pandemic world. -- Oliver Burkeman, author of 'Four Thousand Weeks' Surprising and challenging. Fortitude encouraged me to re-think not only my work but how I live my life. -- Sarah Ellis, co-author of 'The Squiggly Career' A book that confirms what I've always believed, that we can't be resilient on our own. In fact resilience is about all of us being stronger than any of us. -- Gary Lineker |
