You have the skills, experience, and ambition to make a leap in your career—and yet, your progress has stagnated. You’ve had some success, but not as much as you’d envisioned, and it’s been difficult to attract and retain the talent you need to build a high-performing team. You know you’re capable of inspiring resiliency and self-sufficiency in those you lead, but you’re not sure the best way to reach that next level.

Jawad Ahsan has been in your shoes. When he decided to stop letting others chart his course, and instead began to pursue his own North Star, it transformed his career.

In What They Didn’t Tell Me, Jawad has translated the feedback he got and the lessons he learned along the way into actionable advice for leaders at every level. Drawing on his remarkable story, Jawad shows how charting your own course not only changes how others view you—it changes how you view yourself. If you’re ready to become a resilient leader at the helm of a high-performing team, this book is for you.
