About this ebook
From Scribd: About the Book
The bestselling author of Traction, Gino Wickman, pairs up with Rene Boer to write How to Be a Great Boss. The concept behind How to Be a Great Boss is to think of a perfect world where all of your employees brought their A-game to work every single day, and what that would look like for your productivity.
There have been plenty of studies showing the level of disengagement in employees at work, but why is this happening? Many results of these studies point back to the boss, which can completely shift the workforce’s mood from indifference to full engagement.
How to Be a Great Boss covers a wide range of topics, including how to surround yourself with great people, how to make more effective use of your time, the difference between leadership and management, five leadership practices, five management practices, creating accountability, developing productivity, and how to deal with direct reports that aren’t meeting your expectations.

Reviews for How to Be a Great Boss

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I liked how well this book gets to the essential principles and practices necessary for leading people. It prescribes a system, some of which I found a bit formulaic in directions that didn’t completely resonate with me. That observation is from someone with decades of experience. A tenured manager could easily adapt much of this book, adding their own approach. A new leader would do well to follow the author’s system fully.
