Drawing on two decades of research and practice by organizational scientists Geoffrey Tumlin and Cindi Baldi, The Uncertainty Playbook: 14 Strategies for Work Success in a Chaotic World equips readers with essential strategies to grow, and even flourish, in unstable times.
Certainty—which is impossible in an unpredictable world and is often a flimsy cover for worry—isn’t the answer to uncertainty. The solution is confidence in our deliberate choices to act or to pause.
Frank, factual, and full of insight, The Uncertainty Playbook is your route to success in unstable times.
Dr. Geoffrey Tumlin is the president of On-Demand Leadership, the CEO of Mouthpeace Consulting, the author of Stop Talking, Start Communicating (McGraw Hill, 2013), and the co-host, with Cindi Baldi, of the Management Muse podcast. A national media expert on organizational performance, communication, and leadership, Geoffrey has worked with some of the most prestigious companies in the world, including Boston Scientific, Shell Oil, Tripler Army Medical Center, Dow Chemical, and Baylor Scott & White Health. He is a frequent adviser to corporations, governments, and nonprofits across North America. His writing and ideas have been featured in dozens of media outlets, including the Chicago Tribune, the Los Angeles Times, CNN/Fortune.com, and SiriusXM radio. His scholarly writing has appeared in journals and textbooks, such as the International Leadership Journal, the Encyclopedia of Leadership, and in five editions of Professional Communication Skills. Geoffrey holds a PhD and an MA from the University of Texas at Austin and a BS from the United States Military Academy at West Point. He skis poorly, but with enthusiasm, in the winter.
Dr. Cindi Baldi is the founder and CEO of management science firm Culsure and the co-host of the Management Muse podcast. She is an expert on organizational behavior and effectiveness and has presented her research worldwide at institutions such as the Stanford Graduate School of Business, INSEAD School of Business in France, and Ben-Gurion University in Israel. A serial entrepreneur and the author of a book chapter on employee commitment in the prestigious Oxford Handbook of Organizational Identity, Cindi has written multiple articles on business issues for research journals and scholarly publications. She holds a PhD, MBA, and MS in management from the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin, and a BS in management from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Growing up, her family owned—and Cindi worked in—a haunted house, a video arcade, a drive-in movie theater, and a zoo. As a result, she knows a ton about animals and horror movies. She can also beat you at Galaga.
Cindi and Geoff have worked together since shortly after they met, at the Alamo, in 2001. They married in 2005 at a lakefront ceremony in New Hampshire where even the jet skis stopped to watch.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
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.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to HPB-Diamond, Carrollton, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
