"Stationed during the war in an isolated Afghanistan village with a population naturally sympathetic to the Taliban and their hardline Islamist worldview, Scott Mann and his teams were given a mission: connect with the villagers and enlist their support in order to save American lives and reduce Taliban reach into the cities. Over years of working in low-trust, high stakes environments in do-or-die conflict zones all over the globe, Mann - a New York Times bestselling author and acclaimed leadership coach -- learned the best way to bridge the seemingly impossible divisions between people is to meet them where they are, not where you want them to be. He calls this approach Rooftop Leadership, because it was on the rooftops of these depleted villages where he witnessed unprecedented influence across vast trust gaps. But this principle isn't unique to Afghanistan or Green Berets. Whether you work in real estate, corporate sales, HR, community events, politics, it seems the hardest thing to find these days is connection with other people. The social trends and fraying of civil society after more than two years of prolonged isolation from Covid, mass technology, organizational strain, and blinking-red stress levels on our emotional dashboards stemming from persistent performance pressure have taken a toll that we're only beginning to see. Nobody Is Coming to Save You helps readers navigate the churn that's dividing us and the connections we must make to ourselves, to each other, and to the world around us. With inspiring stories about his experiences in the military and candid reflections on life as a retired veteran, Scott Mann helps readers struggling to find connection with others in times of isolation, self-doubt, and low trust - and shows them how to meaningfully motivate others"--
