Leadership That Matters II: Different Minds, One Team

Workplaces aren’t one-size-fits-all, so leadership can't be either. Today’s teams are made up of people who think, process, and work in a wide range of ways. Traditional leadership models often miss the mark. Leadership That Matters II picks up where the first book left off, bringing a fresh, human-centered approach to building teams that actually work.

This book is for leaders ready to move past checkbox inclusion and start making meaningful change. With real-life examples from corporate America, practical case studies, and lived experience, Thomas Addams offers a candid look at what modern teams need to succeed.

Inside, you'll find clear strategies, insightful activities, and action maps for:

• Creating roles and communication habits that reduce stressors and increase focus
• Designing workflows that support team morale and reduce burnout
• Building a culture where neurodivergent and neurotypical team members thrive together

Whether you're managing a small team or leading at scale Leadership That Matters II offers grounded, actionable advice to help your team feel valued, respected, and motivated without the jargon or gimmicks.

Make leadership work for every brain on your team and make the most of the potential hiding in plain sight.
