There’s just one problem: most of these solutions are making things worse. Creativity isn’t produced on an assembly line, and endless hustle is ruining our mental and physical health while subtracting from our creative performance.

Leadership selection isn't the methodical, objective process we imagine. Decisions aren't made by robotic executives ticking boxes for attributes like strategic fit, core competencies, or cultural alignment. Instead, the process is deeply personal, emotional, and often unpredictable. If you think it's purely merit-based, you're not CEO ready. But don't worry, Mark Thompson and Byron Loflin have coached thousands of candidates through the process and have seen it all—they know what it takes to become truly CEO ready and they're sharing it here.

In this book, social and organizational psychologist and professor Vanessa Urch Druskat combines thirty years of research and team development to present a model for building and leading emotionally intelligent teams.

In most situations where things go wrong, someone in the room knew. They just didn't say it. Or didn't act on it. The most expensive failures in any organization are almost never technical. They're behavioral. And almost everyone sees them coming. What Everyone Knew is about learning to see what everyone already knows and nobody is saying, told from inside the rooms where it happens. It shows you what creates these moments, what sustains them, and what it actually takes to lead through them.
