Gill's warm, clear, informative style had me nodding along from start to finish and frequently pencilling notes in the margins as 'Aha!' and 'Eureka!' moments strike...Language is "the depth on the surface".

Perhaps for the very first time, you will begin to see how it might be holding back the entire organisation and with some small but significant changes, could also have the power to set it free. - Amazon 5*
