THE BULLSH
*T STOPS HERE: The Leadership Book Your Company Doesn't Want You to Read

Three decades inside HP, Oracle, Symantec, and Panasonic - and five years building a company from zero - taught Adrian M. Jones every flavour of corporate dysfunction that gets dressed up as ""leadership."" This book is the unfiltered debrief.

It isn't another framework with five Cs and a Venn diagram. It's a working manual for anyone tired of pretending the emperor is fully clothed. The performative town halls, the strategy decks that flip every quarter, the ""values"" that evaporate the moment a number slips - Jones names them, and shows what real leadership looks like in their absence.

Inside:

Why most leadership development programmes make you a worse leader, not a better one How to spot cultural rot in an organisation before it costs you your career The handful of decisions that separate effective leaders from impressive-sounding ones What thirty years of boardroom proximity teaches that no MBA will

For managers, founders, and senior operators who'd rather be respected than promoted. The book your VP doesn't want you to circulate, and the one your team will quietly thank you for.

Reviews for The BullSh*t Stops Here

There are many habits, excuses and organizational dynamics that quietly (and sometimes not so quietly) undermine performance. Adrian Jones does a terrific job of surfacing them, explaining why they exist, and telling you what you can do about it. Spoiler alert: be a leader. This book borrows from a clearly expansive executive history where Adrian's seen a lot. He speaks from experience. What's great is you will know exactly what to do next. He is unapologetically clear. A lot of business books spend endless time with preludes, worksheets, and, frankly, fluff. None of that here. It's 100 pages that tells you exactly what to do if you want to cut the BS and actually produce meaningful results again and again. The only people who will struggle with this book are those who can't be honest with themselves (or those who like mediocrity). - London Calling.
