What You’ll Learn

You’ll learn how to lead — and live — with more flavor.

From gratitude and mindfulness to storytelling and diplomacy, this book blends 15 key skills with modern workplace realities. It’s funny, practical, and refreshingly human — designed to help you thrive at work without losing your appetite for it.

Great meals happen in stages. So does great leadership.

Move from The Prep Station (communicating with yourself), to The Cooking Line (how you collaborate and lead others), to The Perfect Plating (how you share your value with the world). Each section is built to be read, tried, and applied — in any order, at any pace.

Work is messy. Your career progression doesn’t have to be.

No one hands you a playbook for success at work — or in life. I certainly didn't get one!
That's where The Business Buffet comes in: the career handbook for all the things you were never taught but are absolutely expected to know.

Communication is the real competitive advantage.

Across 15 snackable lessons, you’ll learn to communicate better with yourself, others, and the world—so you can grow faster, lead smarter, and make a bigger impact.
Bonus: you’ll make people lean in, not log off.

Leadership isn’t a title — it’s a behavior.

You'll discover what quality leadership actually looks like: listening deeply, building trust, and showing up with authenticity. It's about influence, not ego — the quiet confidence to lead with clarity, curiosity, and courage.
