the system _

By Derrick Mains

Book Overview

TRIGGER WARNING: If you worship at the altar of Peter Drucker , if Jack Welch is your spirit animal , if you think Gary Vee and his hustle culture will get you somewhere-- turn back now. Beyond here be dragons. As Max Hansen, CEO of Y Scouts, says about the system _ : "Read it, then rip up your playbook." For decades, business leaders have been handed the same dusty rulebook --outdated management theories rooted in control, incentives, and micromanagement . In the system _ , Derrick Mains tears it all down and rebuilds it for the modern world. Mains--aka The Process Fixer --has spent over 20 years inside more than 300 companies , from scrappy startups to the Fortune 10 . What he's uncovered is simple but radical: It's not your people failing your systems--it's your systems failing your people. This isn't another book full of leadership clichés or empty motivational fluff . the system _ is a blueprint for rethinking how organizations actually work--at the structural level , where real change happens. Inside, you'll learn how to: Dismantle broken leadership models and replace them with something that actually works. Design systems that cultivate pride, joy, and performance --without carrot-and-stick tactics. Build a business that runs smoother, scales faster, and treats people like humans , not cogs. Aaron Bare, author of the WSJ Best Seller Exponential Theory , calls it: "A deconstruction of 75 years of outdated management theory--rebuilt for today." Scott Winter warns: "You think you've got leadership figured out--this book dares to ask: What if you're wrong?" Benj Miller, CEO of System & Soul, says: "Derrick will make you rethink everything you know about running a business." This book isn't here to tweak your thinking --it's here to burn it down and rebuild it . the system _ is your wake-up call : you're running a 21st-century business with ideas and philosophies from the age of the horse and buggy . This is your invitation to rethink, redesign, and finally lead like it's the 21st century . Because the system _ isn't about grinding yourself (and your team) into dust. It's about finally fixing things and beating the system that make hustle necessary in the first place.
