Synopsis

What if your biggest work problems aren't about ability or experience, but all the unwritten rules forcing you to be someone you're not?

If you're exhausted from second-guessing every decision, tired of feeling like an imposter, stressed by endless meetings that could've been emails, or done with pretending to be "professional" while your motivation tanks, you're not alone. Through groundbreaking research and insights gleaned from consulting thousands of teams and leaders worldwide, Kirsty Hulse reveals why work feels so much harder than it should and shows you what you've suspected all along: there really is a better way.

Whether you're a CEO or new graduate, team leader or freelancer, Don't Swear at Work covers everything you need to succeed on the job. Learn how to:

Present without dreading it

Build genuine connections

Get that huge to-do list done without the stress, and

Lead with genuine self-belief.

Packed with actionable techniques, real-world stories and just enough swearing and chaos to keep it interesting, Don't Swear at Work is your practical guide to stop playing by rules that were designed to make you fail, and start creating a career that's right for you.

About this title

About the Author

Kirsty Hulse runs companies that make work better. She's helped more than 60,000 leaders, teams and C-suite executives to build confidence and communicate better. She has spoken in more than 20 countries, sharing her wisdom with companies like LinkedIn, Amazon and Meta.

As CEO of Neuroworx, Kirsty is fixing hiring by making it simpler and fairer. She also runs Roar!, turning boring corporate training into something people actually enjoy. She created Confidence Live, the world's largest conference dedicated to confidence, where CEOs share stages with comedians, and drag queens perform alongside poets, drawing people from around the world to the unlikely setting of her hometown, Stoke-on-Trent. Her first book, The Future is Freelance, predicted the flexible-working revolution back in 2016 (nobody believed her then, yet here we all are, directing global operations in paint-splattered yoga pants).

On top of all that, Kirsty is a stand-up comedian and brings that energy to everything she does. When she's not fixing workplaces, she's making corporate PowerPoints funny – because someone has to.
