Managing a team is tough. Whether you're a front-line supervisor or a seasoned general manager, the challenges are relentless—people issues, supplier delays, rising costs, and constant deadlines. Most managers feel like they’re running on a treadmill, fighting fires, and never quite getting ahead.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

In GSD Rules, authors Doc McIntyre and Beau Groover crack the code on company culture and manager performance. This isn’t just another management book filled with generic advice. It’s a proven playbook that connects manager behavior to building a high-performance culture—the kind of culture that guarantees better business outcomes.

At the heart of GSD Rules is the transformative GSD Culture framework, built around four key pillars:

    Clarity: Set clear goals and expectations to drive alignment.
    Teamwork: Foster collaboration across every level of your organization.
    Operational Discipline: Create systems that eliminate chaos and promote consistency.
    Energy: Infuse your team with positivity, purpose, and commitment.

Packed with real-world stories, practical tools, and actionable steps, GSD Rules helps managers:

    Stop firefighting and start building systems that prevent problems.
    Empower their teams to achieve exceptional results.
    Transition from overwhelmed and reactive to strategic and unstoppable.

This book is for leaders who refuse to settle for mediocrity. Whether you're dealing with high turnover, eroding margins, or team misalignment, GSD Rules gives you the roadmap to fix these challenges at their root cause—your company culture.

If you’re ready to Get Sh*t Done, transform your management approach, and build a culture that drives sustainable success, this book is your ultimate guide.
