When leaders normalize the topic of mental health on their teams, performance gets unleashed, and lives transformed—usually including their own.

This is surely not your typical leadership book. It's a heartfelt and authentic exploration of one man's journey, and what he learned along the way, as a twenty-year corporate executive all the while struggling with severe, yet undiagnosed depression and anxiety.

It's for all sorts of leaders. From board members and corporate executives to small business owners and factory supervisors. From partners in law firms to nonprofit professionals. And it's a book for all the informal leaders out there—those who lean in and participate in their organization or their community regardless of title, hierarchy, or how much they get paid.

Simple Mental Health speaks to those of us looking to build resilience and address burnout among our teams, and to those of us looking for more holistic, empathetic, and psychologically safe approaches to improved organizational performance.

You'll put it down as a more compassionate leader—with an inspired perspective on mental well being, the prevalence of mental illness among colleagues, family and friends, its impact on individual and team performance, a simple road map to do something about it, and the motivation to take the first step.
