Teams, Tools & Trials is a practical and candid guide for line leaders and HR professionals facing the everyday realities of leadership, collaboration, and organizational change.

Drawing from three decades of hands-on experience, Kevin J. Lewis has helped teams and leaders-at every level, from oil fields to Fortune 50 boardrooms-figure out how to work better together. In this book, he shares real-world strategies, field-tested tools, and hard-won lessons from the front lines of leadership and HR. With refreshing honesty, he tackles what most leadership books ignore: the frustration of being promoted into a role you're not sure you want, the disconnect between HR and operations, and the challenge of leading teams that aren't always aligned, engaged, or easy to manage.

Whether you're a new leader finding your footing, an HR partner ready to make real impact, or a senior executive looking for a fresh perspective, this book offers straight answers and a strategic path forward.

This book will give you:

Practical tools to build trust and strengthen team performance Strategies to align HR and operations as true partners Insights for navigating change with clarity and confidence Guidance for new leaders making the transition from contributor to manager Lessons for experienced executives seeking fresh perspective and strategy Honest discussion of common leadership frustrations and how to address them
