The BA Press is the publishing imprint of Beyond Amazing Limited, founded by Peter Gladdish. It exists to put practical, hard-won ideas into print and to keep them honest. Our first list is the Resolve to Lead trilogy, built on The RESOLVE Framework and its one stubborn idea: discipline under pressure.
The Resolve to Lead Trilogy
One idea, told at three levels. How a leader, a team, and an organisation hold their nerve when the pressure is on.

No. 01The Leader with Resolve
Maintaining Discipline Under Pressure
Out nowPressure does not remove a leader's choices. It reveals their discipline. This first book is about the small crack every one of us carries, and what the bad day does to it that the sunny one never could. Anyone can hold the line when it costs nothing. This is about holding it when it costs something.

No. 02The Team with Resolve
Holding Together Under Pressure
In development — Spring 2027A team's fault line never opens at random. Pressure goes straight to the join that was never really fused: the disagreement smoothed over, the decision nobody owns, the patch each person quietly guards. How a team behaves under pressure isn't news about the pressure. It's news about the team. Book two finds the seam before the bad day does.

No. 03The Organisation with Resolve
Holding the Strategy Under Pressure
In development — Summer 2027A strategy is rarely overturned. It gets nibbled to death by reasonable exceptions, one sensible "just this once" at a time, until the company has become something it never actually decided to be. Book three is about that quiet drift, and how an organisation keeps its resolve when every compromise looks defensible on its own.
Every BA Press book goes to work: the code inside carries the book on.
