Stop sugarcoating reality. Hard decisions taste like shit-but they're the only way through.
Leadership isn't a comfort zone. It's a combat zone. When the pressure hits, your brain has a biological "panic button" that screams for you to choose the easy path. Most leaders listen to it. They hesitate. They compromise. And in doing so, they lose the respect of their team and the integrity of their mission.
In Suck on a MINT, crisis command expert Neil Dubord strips away the corporate fluff to reveal the brutal truth: Real leadership is born in the moments that taste like shit.
Drawing from high-stakes crisis management, corporate disasters, and the front lines of hard-call decision-making, Dubord introduces the MINT System-a battle-tested framework designed to help you face reality when every instinct tells you to run.
Inside this playbook, you will discover:- The Biological Trap: Why your brain is wired to resist discomfort and how that hesitation is actively damaging your team.
