About this book

A comprehensive playbook for mid-level leaders and managers who want to excel and achieve – without burning out

In The Fog of Work: A Simple Approach to Navigating the Complexity of Middle Management, author, podcast host, and management consultant, Adam Tarnow, delivers a transformative guide for mid-level leaders doing their best to traverse the modern workplace. The heart of this book is one life-changing question that empowers managers to gain traction in environments that often seem designed to confuse and disorient even the most experienced leaders.

This book is not filled with unsustainable tips and tricks. There are no calls to level up, step up, own up, or suck it up. Today's mid-level leaders don't need a pep talk; they need a plan that works. They need practical ideas that can be implemented into their professional lives immediately, regardless of their industry. The Fog of Work provides that plan.

  • Proven tactics for discovering sustained motivation
  • An effective toolkit for mid-level leaders interested in achieving consistent, daily progress without risking burnout or feeling overwhelmed

Perfect for managers negotiating the complexities of mid-level organizational leadership, The Fog of Work is your personal guide to making consistently sound decisions, generating professional momentum, and accurately measuring success.
