Story-driven framework for leaders to rebuild credibility when they fail to deliver on their promises
The Radical Promise delivers a story-driven framework for leaders to increase their trust and credibility or rebuild it when their actions don’t match their words. The storyline and concepts are equally applicable to every person, regardless of title or position, who is challenged to keep promises and commitments to make sure that what they "say" (promise) is what they do.
● Specific leadership challenges that make it difficult to match actions with words
● Why DWYSYWD (doing what you say you will do) is the foundation of how credibility is established, no matter the specifics of any situation
● Steps that can be taken to rebuild and polish one's brand, as the characters discover and authors explain
The Radical Promise is an entertaining and thought-provoking book for today's leaders, as well as those aspiring to be or become even better leaders, seeking key lessons they can apply to their own organizations and professional lives.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
