About The Book
You, Me, We is a book for leaders who want to improve―at leading, yes, but also at their lives.
How so? By building deep, long-lasting relationships that set everybody up for success.
One of the most important indicators of individual, team, and organizational success is the presence of an Ally Mindset.
When we have best friends at work―people who are with us in good times and bad and who help ensure we make it through together―we thrive. When we don’t, we flail and eventually crash and burn, leaving only a smoking hulk of debris behind as evidence that we were ever even here.
You, Me, We shares valuable lessons on the five practices of an Ally Mindset so you can not only be a better friend at work, but also experience greater happiness, collaboration, and business outcomes.

“I have coached executives in far too many organizations where the negative relationships have outnumbered the positive ones, and these negative relationships have caused great harm—interpersonally, financially, and in many other ways. Ultimately, this book is all about moving from me to we and how to take the first step to turn our colleagues into trusted friends and allies.”

“It is so easy to show up as a critic in our relationships. Of course, being an ally is far more effective. What makes You, Me, We such a great book is that Morag Barrett, Eric Spencer, and Ruby Vesely don’t just acknowledge the importance of being an ally, they actually help us do it. Read this book. Put their advice into practice. Your relationships will be better for it!”

“We know that one of the characteristics of an engaged employee is one who is excited about opportunities to learn and grow at work—and feels as if they belong. Learning and growing happens more effectively in organizations with inclusive cultures. You, Me, We provides the road map we all need to look up, show up, and step up and build the ally relationships, the friendships, that ensure success for the long term—for employees, and for the business.”

About the Authors
Morag, Eric, and Ruby didn't just write the book on better relationships at work, they've lived it…together.
A trio of best friends and coworkers at SkyeTeam, they've been practicing the principles laid out in You, Me, We for more than a decade. They've built a successful global consulting firm together, gone offroading together, vacationed together, and eaten their weight in bacon together.
They’ve shared tears, laughter (a LOT of it), and the joy of creating a ton of magic for themselves and their clients. Most importantly, they've been allies to each other, looking up, showing up, and stepping up during every professional and personal crisis they've experienced. Together, they can say with certainty that life really is #bettertogether.
