When the stakes are high, how you lead is everything.
The HOW of High-Performance isn’t about leadership theory. It’s about mastering how you lead when the stakes are high and the pressure is real. C-suite leaders are expected to perform at their best, yet few ever stop to refine the foundations that make the biggest difference in high-stakes moments. This book fills that gap.
Through the REAL Method, you’ll rethink your leadership role, overcome emotional blockers, and sustain the energy to lead at your best. No fluff. No recycled advice. Just straight-talking tools to help you lead with clarity, confidence, and impact when it matters most.
Whether navigating transition, managing crisis, or refining your leadership, The HOW of High-Performance equips you to take control, perform under pressure, and deliver results that count.
Sally Henderson is a High-Stakes Leadership Mentor who helps C-suite leaders and their teams navigate complex challenges with clarity and speed. Having run a successful headhunting firm, she now focuses on the most challenging C-suite issues, taking a refreshingly direct approach in a world full of jargon to deliver real results when it matters most.
