'A wonderfully inspirational book that will help unleash your ideas on the world' Michael Acton Smith, creator of Moshi Monsters

'Every great business starts with an idea . . . this book will help you find yours' Richard Reed, co-founder Innocent Drinks

'It seems to me that many could-be creators simply lack support in their lives, someone genuine who listens to their ideas and pushes boundaries to make it all seem possible. Alex and Martin must recognize this, too, because their book is a generous offer of encouragement and spirit, a drum beat that stirred my creative confidence' Zach Klein, co-founder of Vimeo

—— Richard Reed, co-founder Innocent Drinks

We don't lack talent. We don't lack ideas. Indeed, we all have an idea within us. What we lack is the confidence to make our ideas happen. That is why Martin and Alex's book is so important. It walks you through how to make your ideas happen. Step by step.

—— David Hieatt, founder of Howies, Hiut Demin and the Do Lectures

It seems to me that many could-be creators simply lack support in their lives, someone genuine who listens to their ideas and pushes boundaries to make it all seem possible.

—— Zach Klein, co-founder of Vimeo

This beautifully designed, accessible little manual might not turn you into Travis Kalanick overnight, but it might just help you become more you

—— Molly Flatt, the Memo

Shows how to nail your work/life blend

—— Cosmopolitan

I'm a longtime fan of Laura Vanderkam's insightful work - her recommendations for getting the most out of every day are often counterintuitive but always realistic and manageable. In her new book, she reveals the time management strategies that highly successful mothers use to build lives that work. Thanks to her findings, I'll never look at my weekly calendar the same way again

—— Gretchen Rubin, author of Better Than Before and The Happiness Project

For many years I've wanted to see reflected in our collective conversation what I know to be true in women's lives: that many of us are happily combining work and motherhood, and loving both. Laura Vanderkam has written the book that's been sorely missing, and she's done so with an impassioned, eloquent voice, important new research, and the warmth of a dear friend

—— Tara Mohr, author of Playing Big

An empowering guide for professionals who want to figure out how to become superstars in their fields while building satisfying lives

—— Dorie Clark, author of Reinventing You and Stand Out

In this engrossing and eternally helpful book, Laura Vanderkam shares valuable insights from women who have mastered their most vital resource: time. I Know How She Does It stands apart thanks to Vanderkam's nuanced understanding of what it takes to become an efficient yet balanced individual

—— Tim Sanders, author of Love Is the Killer App

This book could have been titled How to Be a Superhero, because that's how it makes you feel and act after reading it. Vanderkam's curiosity for high performance and what makes it possible is infectious. Packed with research from real lives and tips for real change, this book is sure to help women around the world discover their own path to success

—— Jon Acuff, author of Do Over

As a busy CEO, I was inspired by the hundreds of people Vanderkam studied who found ample time for career, family, and self in the same 168 hours available to everyone, each week. If my entire team read this book, we would all benefit

—— Richard Sheridan, CEO and chief storyteller, Menlo Innovations, and author of Joy, Inc.

This deceptively simple system is the most powerful way I've seen to improve the effectiveness of any team. I started using it with my business and family halfway through reading the book.

—— Leo Babauta, creator of Zen Habits

A rip-roaring read.

—— People Management

Every manager should read it.

—— Scottish Business Insider

Makes you rethink the fundamentals of successful management.

—— Flight Time

Whether you’re building schools in a third world country, teaching a classroom full of elementary students, or building websites, Scrum is highly effective because it matches many of the instincts that drive human nature; as Sutherland put it in his book, “Happiness is not complacent. It is a process, not a result.”

—— Speckyboy

If there was a Nobel Prize for management, and if there was any justice in the world, I believe that the prize would be awarded, among others, to Jeff Sutherland, Ken Schwaber and Mike Cohn for their contributions to the invention of Scrum.

—— Forbes magazine

He seems so perfectly suited to the form… [A] well-observed collection that one wishes was twice as long.

—— Carl Wilkinson , Financial Times

This is a superb analysis of modern pop music.

—— i

Seabrook has written an interesting book, smearing away some of the gloss and glamour from the music industry, to reveal details of its inner workings… An interesting book overall on a global industry that has as many secrets as glitterballs.

—— Paul Cheney , Nudge
