IS THIS BOOK FOR YOU?
Cicely wrote this for a specific kind of leader. Not someone still figuring out if they belong in leadership.
Someone who has already proved it, and is quietly frustrated that the results don't reflect it.
It's for you if:
- You've been in leadership long enough to know your results should be better, and you can't fully explain why they're not
- You've read the books, done the courses, sat through the corporate training, and on Monday morning, you're still managing the same dynamics you were managing two years ago
- You were promoted because you were excellent at execution. Now the job requires something different, visibility, influence, strategic positioning, and nobody handed you a playbook for that
- The people closest to you have noticed something is off. You're working harder than ever and seem less at peace than ever

THE C.H.A.I.R FRAMEWORK
The 5-Part Framework That Changes How You Lead — Starting This Week
Most leadership books give you principles.
Pull Up Your C.H.A.I.R. gives you five frameworks, one per pillar, each designed to be applied to the real situations already on your calendar.
Not theory you finish on Sunday and forget by Tuesday. A system you bring into your meetings, your conversations, and your decisions starting this week.
The higher you go in leadership, being excellent at your job is assumed.
This pillar gives you the structural skill most leaders are never taught: how to be strategically visible, seen, heard, and positioned for what comes next.
The hardest leadership conversation isn't with your team; it's with yourself. This pillar is about identifying the blind spots you've been working around, being honest about where you're falling short as a leader, and building the commitment to close that gap.
Leading through uncertainty is a different skill when you're uncertain yourself. This pillar gives you a system for holding your team steady while privately navigating what comes next.
The leaders who get noticed at organizational scale aren't working more hours, they're operating differently. This chapter gives you the system for being a person of impact, not just influence
The decisions that define your legacy don't come with perfect information. This pillar is about how you show up: the missed opportunities, the moments of playing smaller than the role required. Because regret is a choice, this is the framework for choosing differently.

Order from this page and get THREE BONUSES you won't find elsewhere.
The autographed edition is only available on this page, with the three exclusive resources below that make the book actually do something when you get back to work.
Exclusive Bonus #1
C.H.A.I.R. Leadership Self-Assessment
Most leaders are losing the most ground in one specific pillar, and have no idea which one.
This diagnostic identifies your biggest blind spot so you know exactly where to focus, instead of trying to improve everything at once.
Take it before you start the book.
Take it again six months in.
The gap between those two results will tell you more than a year of self-reflection.
Exclusive Bonus #2
Implementation Quickstart Guide
A one-page action plan for each chapter.
Because the insight you get on Saturday shouldn't stay on Saturday.
Every chapter comes with a concrete set of moves you can make at work the following week, no translation required.
Exclusive Bonus #3
The C.H.A.I.R. Masterclass Video
Going deeper on every pillar, including a framework Cicely never published!
One framework in this video doesn't appear in the book: Cicely's Mental Adaptability Model.
The leadership skill which is the hardest test you'll ever face and the one no program ever prepares you for.
Most leaders spend years finding it the hard way; you get it here EXCLUSIVELY.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Cicely Simpson spent 30+ years inside executive leadership at the highest levels of corporate America and government — including serving as Vice President at Dunkin' Brands, a Fortune 500 global company, where she became the youngest VP in the company's history and the only woman of color in the VP ranks at the time.
From there she was recruited to serve as Executive Vice President at the National Restaurant Association, one of America's largest trade associations, where she rebuilt eight siloed teams from the ground up and drove the organization to a level of national prominence it hadn't seen before.
Along the way she advised 5 U.S. Presidents and their administrations, worked alongside Fortune 500 and Fortune 150 executives, and built a track record inside organizations including Starbucks, and Dunkin', Planet Fitness, and Home Depot.
She's also been exactly where this book is written for. The ceiling that couldn't be explained.
The gap between what she knew she was capable of and what was actually showing up at work.
What she discovered, from 30 years of living inside the problem, not just studying it, is that the issue is almost never talent or effort. It's structure.
Specifically, the absence of a system that converts leadership insight into leadership behavior.
That's what she built.
That's what's in this book.

AMAZON BEST SELLER
Every month you spend consuming information without implementing, is another month at the same ceiling.
The gap between the leader you know you are and the results you're actually producing doesn't close by itself.
It closes when you stop adding information and start working from a system.
Regret is a choice. So is the decision to close the gap.
