Summary
What makes a truly exceptional leader？ Discover the practical， fail-proof tools that will help you to fine-tune your leadership skills， solidify respect among your workforce， and ensure your company’s lasting success。
When Martin G。 Moore was asked to rescue a leading energy corporation from ever-increasing debt and a lack of executive accountability， he faced an uphill battle。 Not only had he never before stepped into the role of CEO; he also had no experience in the rapidly evolving energy sector。 Relying on the practical leadership principles he had honed throughout his thirty-three-year career， he overhauled the company’s culture， redefined its leadership capability， and increased earnings by a compound annual growth rate of 125 percent。
In No Bullsh！t Leadership， Moore outlines these proven leadership principles in a clear， direct way。 He sweeps away the mystical fog surrounding leadership today and lays out the essential steps for success。 Moore combines this tangible advice with honest， real-world examples from his own career to provide a no-nonsense look at the skills a true leader possesses。
Moore’s principles for no bullshit leadership focus on:
Creating value by focusing only on the things that matter most Facing conflict， adversity， and ambiguity with decisiveness and confidence Setting uncompromising standards for behavior and performance Selecting and developing great people Making those people accountable， and empowering them to do their best Setting simple， value-driven goals and communicating them relentlessly
Though the steps aren’t easy， they are guaranteed， if implemented， to lift your leadership–and your organization–to a higher level。 Wherever you are in your career， No Bullsh！t Leadership will help you develop the skills and form the habits needed to become a no bullshit leader。

I wanted to read this book not just for the sake of learning something about leadership but more about knowing what to watch out for and above all， as a facilitator working with rural communities， to know how to get the most out of people because collaboration/teamwork is key in my kind of work。 I loved this book， from the very beginning， the author states what he is talking about and why- no promises of success or of getting it right the first time， but what he said that made me relate to this I wanted to read this book not just for the sake of learning something about leadership but more about knowing what to watch out for and above all， as a facilitator working with rural communities， to know how to get the most out of people because collaboration/teamwork is key in my kind of work。 I loved this book， from the very beginning， the author states what he is talking about and why- no promises of success or of getting it right the first time， but what he said that made me relate to this book is that leadership at the core is about people and that in itself is ever changing and not easy。 I appreciated that kind of honesty。He also goes through the seven areas of leadership in detail。I feel like this book is more suited to anyone who not only wants to engage people in doing a task， but also changemakers， advocates and those in structured/hierarchical institutions。 It's a detailed book on people， actions， and leadership。Thanks Netgalley and the publisher for the eARC。 。。。more

As a fan of the No Bullsh！t Leadership podcast and Leadership Beyond the Theory course， I couldn't wait to read Marty's book。 It delivers real and insightful guidance and practical tools to help with leadership mastery。 The questions that Marty leaves you with at the end of each chapter are supportive of reflection and action。 The audio version gives the added benefit of Marty's No Bullshi！t tone。 As a fan of the No Bullsh！t Leadership podcast and Leadership Beyond the Theory course， I couldn't wait to read Marty's book。 It delivers real and insightful guidance and practical tools to help with leadership mastery。 The questions that Marty leaves you with at the end of each chapter are supportive of reflection and action。 The audio version gives the added benefit of Marty's No Bullshi！t tone。 。。。more

There are a multitude of management books on the market but this one stands out from the pack。 Living up to its title， this book contains highly practical and no-nonsense advice about how to be an effective leader and build strong and cohesive teams。 The concepts are easy to understand and the real-life examples are highly relatable。 If you follow the fundamental principles espoused in this book， you are guaranteed results。 Antonia Mercorella， CEO of the Real Estate Institute of Australia

I've read lots of books on leadership through study and personal interest and this one takes the cake。 Congratulations Martin for giving us the bible "No Bullshit Leadership"。 We have to find our own way to become a good leader and Martin shares credible insights that go beyond the textbook and into our workplace。 As Martin states， most advice is true but not useful。 Great leaders are ones others want to follow， value excellence （momentum） over perfection （inertia） and surround themselves with t I've read lots of books on leadership through study and personal interest and this one takes the cake。 Congratulations Martin for giving us the bible "No Bullshit Leadership"。 We have to find our own way to become a good leader and Martin shares credible insights that go beyond the textbook and into our workplace。 As Martin states， most advice is true but not useful。 Great leaders are ones others want to follow， value excellence （momentum） over perfection （inertia） and surround themselves with the best people。 My biggest takeaway; ask the right questions of yourself and others and a calm confidence in your leadership emerges， especially under pressure。 It's contagious！ And the little exercises at the end of each chapter keep us honest。 So get a copy and read it！ 。。。more

Leadership is hard， but if you are looking looking for practical framework with implementable tools you can use the next day this is the book for you。 Whether you are a new leader or an experienced leader who still wishes to learn more this is the book for you。 As a leader your no 1 job really is to deliver results and value！。 It provides a no fluff no bullshit approach。 It will be the best no regrets move you will make by investing in this book。I started following Martin G More 2 years ago on h Leadership is hard， but if you are looking looking for practical framework with implementable tools you can use the next day this is the book for you。 Whether you are a new leader or an experienced leader who still wishes to learn more this is the book for you。 As a leader your no 1 job really is to deliver results and value！。 It provides a no fluff no bullshit approach。 It will be the best no regrets move you will make by investing in this book。I started following Martin G More 2 years ago on his No Bullshit Leadership Podcast which reignited my passion in leadership and where I can continue to improve and hone my skills as a leader。 I love the way each chapter starts with the "Bullshit We Believe"。 For me the 2 chapters I think leaders will get a lot of value out of this and the term "Respect before Popularity"。 Makes you think！Chapter 4 was the pie in the face moment for me "Working at the Right Level"。 Certainly I am and have been guilty of this， and when you move into a new leadership role its really important to work on this and not be a micromanager。 If you do， you will not only stagnate your growth， but most importantly your peoples growth， development and empowerment>Another pie in the face moment was "Trusting people too Much" and has made me reflect on an area I still not there yet on and have to work on as a leader is "Trust but verify"。 Highly recommend this book for any leader and its a great resource you can pull off the shelf when down in the trenches the next day。 Never forget Leaders are learners！！ Its not often I will read a book in day but in lock down in Sydney what a great way to spend the day！！！ 。。。more

The best thing about this book is that it's just so relatable。 Even though Marty was a CEO of a multi billion dollar energy company， and I run a small team of food marketers， every page had something I resonated with， could implement or challenged my way of thinking。I first discovered No BS Leadership via the podcast， so if you're a fan of that， then you'll love this book。 It's the framework your leadership career has always needed but in a very enjoyable， very articulate read， along with a few The best thing about this book is that it's just so relatable。 Even though Marty was a CEO of a multi billion dollar energy company， and I run a small team of food marketers， every page had something I resonated with， could implement or challenged my way of thinking。I first discovered No BS Leadership via the podcast， so if you're a fan of that， then you'll love this book。 It's the framework your leadership career has always needed but in a very enjoyable， very articulate read， along with a few home truths。 。。。more

An incredibly fresh and comprehensive view on impactful leadership！ So often leadership texts are full of platitudes and ideals， but Martin Moore's writing lives up the name of the book， with no BS used whatsoever as he tackles real-life leadership head on。 The value of the author having trodden the path himself is clear， and the frequency with which you hear "for example" is testament to the value his career as a successful executive brings to the reader。In terms of writing style， the books rea An incredibly fresh and comprehensive view on impactful leadership！ So often leadership texts are full of platitudes and ideals， but Martin Moore's writing lives up the name of the book， with no BS used whatsoever as he tackles real-life leadership head on。 The value of the author having trodden the path himself is clear， and the frequency with which you hear "for example" is testament to the value his career as a successful executive brings to the reader。In terms of writing style， the books reads incredibly easily。 Don't expect a comfortable experience overall though - this book will challenge you deeply to reflect on your own leadership effectiveness and that discomfort will certainly prompt positive change for you。Highly recommended for leaders of any level， and future leaders looking for enlightenment ahead of time。 。。。more

I love Marty’s approach to leadership。 His way of talking about it is very tangible and easy to understand。 He really cuts all the crap and gets to the point。 This world would be so much nicer if every leader followed at least half of what’s in this book。 This book is great not only for leaders on every level but actually also for everyone else so that you know what to request from your leaders。 One risk though， as this book might make you realize how bad leadership in your organization is。

We started working with Marty at the start of 2020 after listening to his podcast and I can honestly say， the amount we have learnt from him， has been life changing both personally， and for our business。Me and my partner are young leaders （in our 30’s） and we own a medium sized business with under 10 staff。 We had already gained so much from Marty before reading the book， I wasn’t sure how much more we could learn， but I was extremely （pleasantly） surprised！The No Bullsh！t Leadership audiobook We started working with Marty at the start of 2020 after listening to his podcast and I can honestly say， the amount we have learnt from him， has been life changing both personally， and for our business。Me and my partner are young leaders （in our 30’s） and we own a medium sized business with under 10 staff。 We had already gained so much from Marty before reading the book， I wasn’t sure how much more we could learn， but I was extremely （pleasantly） surprised！The No Bullsh！t Leadership audiobook is honestly one of the best books I have listened to。 It has given me the motivation and inspired me to be a better leader。 A lot of what’s in the book is transferable to both business and your personal life， so if you are in two minds about whether this book is suitable for you， I would say you will learn so much from it， whatever level you are at。 I have studied， read and listened to multiple other books on business and leadership， and always found it difficult to put ideas into practice。 This book gives you practical， achievable tips and tricks to reach excellence。 I have bought 20 hard copies of the book to give to clients who I think will benefit from the information in the book as I really believe every leader should have this knowledge！I give this book 5 stars and I encourage every leader （or aspiring leader） at any level to read it。 I promise， you won’t regret it！ 。。。more

I’ve been a huge fan of Marty’s since I started listening to his podcast over 2 years ago。 The book did not disappoint！ It’s a really clear， structured guide for how to be a strong， results focused leader。 I found the end of chapter reflection questions super helpful to ‘set the bar’ for where I’m at。 As a mid-level leader， this book gave me so much food for thought that I can actually put into play！
