The majority of bosses do not wake up in the morning and say to themselves, "Today is a great day to ruin my people's lives." Which is why it's so alarming that almost everyone (99.6%) have had a bad boss, and that roughly six out of ten people (57%) leave their job because of their boss. Bad Bosses are truly ruining lives!
The truth is that even if you think you're a Great Boss, you might have Bad Boss traits lurking inside of you. But we're here to help. This book is a call to action for any boss who instead wants to wake up in the morning and be a great boss! Develop your awareness of the 10 types of bad bosses covered in this book and the traits associated with them. If you recognize yourself (and we promise you will), it's time to accept your bad boss style and take action to enrich lives using the Great Boss Building Block(TM) model.
The model has 14 different elements, or what we're calling "building blocks." Each individual building block strengthens the structures you need to develop and maintain strong relationships with your people - ones where they're engaged, motivated, productive, and able to be their best selves. Together, the blocks you choose will build resilient and lasting structures that can withstand the challenges and tests of time (and people).
Packed with practical and actionable tips, tools, stories and models, this book is a must-read for those who are brave enough to look in the mirror, providing "learning moments" and actionable tools that will help you be a better leader. It will help you...
Manage better. Learn better. And simply, Be better. For you can only be a great boss and ENRICH lives if you don't let your own bad boss traits RUIN their lives!
