LEADING... Why is it such hard work?

Leading a team in a professional environment is a brutal challenge associated with tremendous energy expenditure, never-ending tension and exhausting hours.

But who wrote the rule that it has to be like this?

The Rhythm Effect is a study in breeding courage, confidence and commitment into our working cultures for smoother, happier and highly autonomous teams.

Utilising the principles of rhythm is a way for leaders to amplify their progress and increase everyone's return on effort (ROE) for rippling benefits to all stakeholders.

Written by leadership and performance expert Paul Farina, this book details how you can turn friction into flow and resistance into engagement with a proven framework.

Learn to:

  • Overcome demotivation and energy depleters that undermine team trust and belief.
  • Synchronise your people to capitalise on your team's precious effort, finite company resources and your own untapped capability.
  • Realise your leadership influence with elevated courage, confidence and commitment to promote calm throughout your team's culture.
  • Master rhythm for ongoing and meaningful progress with endless momentum.

The Rhythm Effect teaches practical strategies to develop belief, respect and deep trust with one goal: to help high-achieving, hard-working professionals accelerate their progress.

David Cruttenden, Senior Media and Broadcast Consultant, Former ABC Director of Resources

We've all seen them, most of us have felt their wrath. The proponents of the 'try-harder' mindset, with just the one trick in their kitbag, seeking to exhort greater effort from already exhausted bodies and minds.

This mindset has been carried from generation to generation, coach to coach, leader to leader. Many of us have become them. But in my experience, 30 years in elite sport, nothing good happens when people are pushed to exhaustion. Fun is replaced by fear.

Yes, effort is required, but it is only a ticket to the game. I also learned that sport is not team vs team, or club vs club, it is system vs system. We need a better system to elicit higher performance.

In your hand is the system. It is built on the lived experience. The best of business. The best of sport. Immediately accessible and applicable. It is a leader's leadership tool kit.

Paul Farina's The Rhythm Effect is the system you and your team needs to build teams and organisations based on insight and understanding, the stuff that matters.

And that's when the fun starts.

The Rhythm Effect is a unique approach to Leading High Performing Cultures. The frameworks allow practical implementation for leaders to be their best in establishing an environment where team members can be winners. Leaders are under tremendous pressure to deliver results, many making the mistake of throwing more hours and more resources to deliver them. Paul proposes an alternative that is both inspirational and pragmatic for leaders of all backgrounds and experience levels. The utilisation of Rhythm as a performance concept is an exciting prospect in our contemporary business environment.
