What readers say
“In this book, Josefine Campbell focuses on the essence of being a good leader—how can we become a better version of ourselves? The combination of optimizing energy and mental presence is a powerful message that many leaders will be able to use to become a better version of themselves. At a turning point in my life, I realized what it can do to [help me] be mentally agile. After that, it helped me handle my work with Pandora’s IPO. Today I use it in my work in Carlsberg, but also privately. In my opinion, it is more a self-development book than a management book because you can use the tools in all aspects of life.”
Jesper SabroeFinance Vice President, Carlsberg Group
“I will definitely try to be more aware of avoiding (as much as possible) being hooked at work – as well as in my private life. Working with this state of mind will make a big difference to my business collaboration, but also to my private relationships.”
Camilla HeidebyExecutive Assistant to CEO and group management, Nordea A/S 
“It is a highly relevant topic. Because, management today is all about how to collaborate – not only internally in the company, but also externally with the customers. If you are hooked, you’ll create a wall around yourself – and then it is difficult to cooperate. In my work as a turnaround CEO, it’s crucial that I don’t react automatically if some are aggressive or have a bad behavior. But, instead can be ready so I can hear what they are saying. The book provides in a direct and uncomplicated way many relevant perspectives and takes on how to be more clear – perspectives and takes you really can use.”
Carsten HoeckCEO, Loxam
“A situation that we can all get a little annoyed about is listening to people, who: “do-not-know-what-they-do–not-know”. After reading Josefine Campbell’s book: “Are you clear or hooked?”, I became much wiser, and can now – with emphasis – talk about management & management problems. Even after 40 years of management experience, the book provides significant input!”
Flemming LindeløvChairman of several boards e.g. PRIME OFFICE A/S etc.
“This is a book where the importance of context and the individual responsibility are perfectly linked. It is not either-or, it is both-and. This is typical for Campbell’s work, which is characterized by always being adjusted and adapted to the organization or the person she is facing and with full focus on the task of developing or moving a person, a management team or an organization towards their goals. Adapted to the pace that suits the situation – but also with the opportunity to put the necessary positive pressure to make changes happen.”
Henrik BuschChairman of several boards, CEO & Network Director 
“The book was in many ways a good reminder for me, among other things. about the importance of being aware of your “energy–barometer” and prioritizing charging if your energy-level is low. The extra angle about being hooked is very relevant, and the book is written in a form that makes it easy to read. Hence, it’s nice that you can feel the author’s personality and presence throughout the book."
Helle RasmussenDirector Carlsberg Group
“Josefine has, with her straight-forward approach and extensive experience from i.e. executive coaching, a solid experience base which she elegantly conveys to a very hands-on approach to get more energy in everyday life and dealing with stress better! I learned a lot by reading it!”
Mikkel VindeløvGroup Director, Strategy & PMO, Hempel A/S
