Overview
A leadership fable about the transformative power of genuine attention
In The Network: A Leadership Fable About Making People Feel Seen, keynote speaker and executive coach Antonio Neves delivers a business fable for an era of workplace disconnection. When a top-market television executive producer loses everything he built, five days with an unassuming small-market television news director teach him that attention is the most valuable resource a leader can give.
The Network integrates the extractable five principles woven into the narrative—Believe, Commit, Find the Edge, Carry the Cost, Find Your Allies—directly into the narrative, so readers absorb each principle through story rather than instruction. The book's structure naturally supports corporate training and coaching applications. A downloadable discussion guide is available at . With a foreword by Jon Gordon, the book confronts what no algorithm can manufacture: the experience of being genuinely seen.
Readers will also find:
- A realistic protagonist whose resistance to transformation mirrors how real professionals confront their own leadership blind spots
- A mentor character whose practice grew from personal failure, offering an honest model for building trust through consistent attention
- The 5 principles presented as both narrative experience and standalone corporate training framework with a discussion guide
- A story set in a a small-market newsroom before the age of algorithms that provides structural contrast to today's algorithm-driven workplace and its epidemic of disconnection
- Practical takeaways on building human infrastructure—the network of people who saw you before you saw yourself
The Network speaks directly to mid-career professionals navigating disengagement and isolation, as well as to L&D leaders, HR executives, and managers seeking to rebuild genuine human connection within their organizations. It reframes leadership around the one resource no technology can replicate: paying real attention to the people in front of you.
