Proven strategies to get your team's best work in the most distracting environments.

Are you leading a team that's busy but never at its best? Is the pressure to do more with less pushing your people to burnout?

Most people don't underperform because they lack talent or ambition. They underperform because their environment makes sustaining great work nearly impossible. But you don't have to lose your team's best work to endless distractions. With Pause, you won't.

Pause reveals twelve leadership practices to deliberately slow things down so your team can move faster on top priorities. Drawing from original research on over 150 major companies from Amazon to Google to LinkedIn, speaker and consultant Shawn Vanderhoven discovered that teams with leaders who pause spend triple the time on their biggest projectsregardless of the chaos that surrounds them.

With this actionable framework, you'll learn how to:
- Protect focus time by replacing distracting messaging habits
- Generate momentum by turning fuzzy goals into crystal-clear targets
- Reveal the hidden workload that's silently killing deep work
- Recognize when your people need your ear to increase their ability to concentrate
- Turn rumination into confidence by using mistakes to fuel growth

Through these practices and with captivating case studies, Pause gives you the strategies to cut through the noise, deliver remarkable results, and become the boss everyone wants to work for.
