There is a frank disclaimer in “Move Fast and Fix Things: The Trusted Leader’s Guide to Solving Hard Problems”:
“If cynicism is a go-to emotion right now, then we suggest coming back to this book when you’re in a better place. … If your instinct is to burn it all down because you see no reason to hope, then we might suggest other titles.”
Such a role reversal for a book to turn down a consumer is rare. A bookseller might call it unadvisable. But if the intrepid consumer reads on, the disclaimer becomes emblematic of the book’s thesis, not to mention its authorial charm.
This is a playbook about moving fast. Thoughtfully and intentionally but fast. The disclaimer cuts to the chase, engaging the right reader and liberating the wrong one (or wrong-for-now one). Its candor demonstrates authenticity, logic, even empathy—the trifecta of dimensions that build organizational trust, according to the authors.
