Rule Breaker

Rebellious Leadership for the Future of Work

«Bedtime reading this is not. This book will get your mind racing and entrepreneurial spirit rising as it not only confirms what you had been thinking about the world in which we live and operate but gives practical advice on what you can actually do about it. There is no guide for those who innovate. Until now, that is. Jackie Fast gives real advice drawn from personal experience and subjective analysis to help you navigate a fast-paced and changing world. To break the rules, you need to know the rules. This book will help you decide which ones to break and which ones to make. No one can predict the future. No matter how brilliant at your job you may be. But you can prepare for a world in which everything has changed by knowing your own mind. Jackie Fast will help you clarify your thoughts, gain confidence and give you a chance to achieve your potential. And there aren't many books that can make that claim!»

When the winners of today can be dethroned by a surprise new entrant tomorrow, how do you ensure you stay on top? The world has changed, and the leaders of the future are those who embrace disruption and make their own rules.

Rule Breaker is a manifesto for a new wave of leadership. One that operates in flatter workplaces where command and control doesn't work, and where people are entrusted with powerful purpose that grows businesses and communities. Award-winning entrepreneur, Jackie Fast, details how we have got here and why a whole new generation of workers is moving away from traditional models of work. Rule Breaker shows you how businesses like Kylie Cosmetics, M.92 and Beats can tap into a purposeful and engaged community of talent, harnessing true diversity and collaboration.

To remain a highly successful leader in a future of radical change, you need to do more than fly the flag at the top of the podium supported by those beneath you. You must join the frontline and pave the way. Throw away the rule book, encourage rebelliousness, ask questions and lead by example.

«Full of brilliant zesty stories, this book is captivating to read and leaves you ready to take on the world.»

Bruce Daisley, former vice-president, Twitter, bestselling author the Joy of Work

«Jackie Fast traces the new perspective on business structures and rules brought about by the internet, fostering a new breed of entrepreneurs and leaders. Well researched and enjoyable, this is a playbook for how to achieve success in the new era by inspiring the inner rebel in you to go their own way. A must-read for anyone looking to do things differently!»

Claude Littner, professor, entrepreneur, advisor to Lord Sugar, The Apprentice (UK)

«This is not only a fresh, unique perspective on leadership, it is the perspective on leadership we need. Jackie Fast's ability to recognize and convey what a modern leader is capable of leaves you nodding your head with an intense urge to underline every gem of information. Highly recommend!»

Lauryn Evarts Bosstick, founder, The Skinny Confidential

«Breaking the rules has moved from being a risky thing to do to becoming a responsible thing to do. I have no doubt that positive, professional rule breaking is undoubtedly the next essential skill of the 21st century, and Rule Breaker is the definitive guidebook on how to it with the courage, ethics and imagination that could lead leaders to the breakthroughs we all need.»

Sam Conniff Allende, author of Be More Pirate, co-founder, Livity

«What a white-knuckle ride! Jackie Fast has created a book which leaves you breathless. This book demonstrates with precise clarity both why and how we can ditch the conventional wisdom which serves us no longer. The pace of change has been fierce in this new era, reaching a crescendo in 2020. As leaders, we need to be equal to that change. Rule Breaker is your roadmap to delivering that change. The stimulating combination of personal experience and real-life case studies gives clear direction on how we can all adopt a growth mindset, be rebellious, be more agile and lead by example. When you put this book down, you feel you are letting yourself down if you don't rush out immediately and make a difference. Truly inspirational and a must-read for all aspiring leaders in business, in public service, in society; in fact, in all walks of life. This book sets the leadership standard for at least the next decade.»

John Stapleton, co-Founder of New Covent Garden Soup Co & Little Dish, the Authentic Entrepreneur

«To be successful in the current climate, organizations need to be authentic. They need to have a point of view on the important topics affecting all of us. Why? Because people no longer want a transactional relationship with a company simply based on the buying of products and services; they want a more meaningful connection grounded in shared values and a purpose beyond profit. To make this transition, leaders must choose to do something different, something disruptive. In this thought-provoking book, Jackie Fast shows why the old rules need to be broken and how leaders can act now to build the type of organization their customers really want.»

Jeff Dodds, Chief Operating Officer, Virgin Media

«Chuck the old rules out. Leaders of the future are forging their own paths. Who better to explain the new dynamics of leadership than Jackie Fast, embodying the spirit of a renegade maverick. As the world shifts, what counts now is your ability to bet on yourself, think outside of the box and courageously inspire others to come with you. Sharing a set of lessons learned, and creating a much-needed playbook now, Jackie Fast will bring out the brave leader in you.»

Lisa Winning, tech entrepreneur

«There is far too little business journalism for business people. We've sadly settled for books about trading or "levelling up" or backwards-looking navel gazing. But Jackie Fast fixes the problem. Rule Breaker explores a seismic mind shift driving business in the 21st century, changing the way we think about business. She offers a Rosetta Stone to help us key into the next era of innovation, technology and even the future of business.»

Cory Johnson, Managing Member, Epistrophy Capital

«Filled with insightful stories on how businesses of the future are defying a history of old management tactics that no longer work. If you are wanting to make an impact, put this on your required reading list!»

Yao Huang, founder, The Hatchery

«Jackie Fast is an essential analyst of what makes leadership work, disruption effective and rule breakers prevail. Nobody who wants to understand the way the modern world works should miss this book.»

Matthew d'Ancona, editor and partner, Tortoise Media

«An exciting and valuable book on how, in these times of rapid changes, leaders must redefine their role and draw on different sets of skills to be able to face the future. The biggest risk a leader is facing today is in fact not the lack of skills, but a complacent attitude about skills previously acquired that no longer fit the present world. Therefore, being a rebellious leader is not the prerogative of a few outliers; it should become the mainstream thought on how to shape a vision and inspire for change. Rule Breaker fosters the kind of constructive debate and fresh thinking that breaks the status quo and will enable this new type of leaders to face the challenges ahead.»

Marina Tognetti, founder and Chief Executive Officer, mYngle
