You're Not Playing With a Full Deck:
Why the People Who Drive You Crazy Also Drive Breakthrough Results

Available April 2026 in PAPERBACK, Ebook, Audiobook, and A Limited Edition Hardcover

THAT PERSON WHO DRIVES YOU NUTS? THEY'RE YOUR SECRET WEAPON.​​

With the best of intentions, we hire people who fit the mold.

But here’s the problem: when everyone fits the mold, the whole organization grows mold. You get stale thinking. Safe ideas. No breakthroughs.

You end up playing with only half a deck. The perspectives you avoid—the colleagues who make you cringe, the ideas that sound crazy—are the missing cards. And they’re costing you growth.

In this book, you’ll learn to:

  • Turn the colleagues who drive you crazy into your competitive advantage—they unlock what you’ve been missing
  • Identify which cards are missing from your team—and why that’s costing you breakthrough results
  • Rethink “culture fit”—it’s blocking your growth by making you overlook the people who could change everything
  • Balance your meeting portfolio—you’re probably playing with half a deck here too

No endless personality tests. No 47-page report. No corporate BS.

Just a fast read that’ll change how you see everyone you work with—especially the ones you’d rather avoid.
