The book

MANX: A Leadership Thinking Model

Mastery, audacity, connection and the human multiplier.

These pages give you the outline. The book gives you the whole model. Every one of the twenty-eight components comes with the research behind it, three things to try on Monday morning, the ways it goes wrong when it’s overdone, and a question worth sitting with.

  • The full Feelforward move, and how the four facets check and strengthen each other
  • The MANX profile, a self-review across all twenty-eight components that you complete alongside a colleague
  • Guidance for using the model in leadership team meetings, appraisal, recruitment, induction and with governors
