Summary: Are you struggling to be an effective leader? Do you have trouble keeping your team focused, motivated, and committed to the pursuit of their assigned goals? The truth is, the majority of bosses fail to inspire their employees to be engaged and productive at work. And they're often frustrated by their inability to incite their team to action. As a manager or an entrepreneur, embracing the leadership role can be stressful. Convincing your troop to follow you into uncharted territory requires a delicate mix of patience and assertiveness. You'd like your office to be a pleasant place to work. But you need your employees to be professional and competent. You don't want to be a tyrant. But you need your team to execute your plans efficiently. You want to be friendly with your staff. But you need them to respect your decisions. How can you hope to resolve these tensions and become the kind of leader that your team would be proud to follow? The solution lies in understanding that most employees seek more than just a paycheck. They aspire to work with great people, to produce fruitful results from their labor, and to pursue a noble goal. Truly great leaders know how to create an environment in which such sentiments are naturally aroused. Great leaders understand how to develop and nurture productive relationships with their employees. Great leaders know how to set and track challenging goals that motivate their team to action. Great leaders don't pay for respect, they earn it. This book will teach you how to be a great and effective leader. We'll bypass the typical management mumbo-jumbo and teach you several timeless leadership principles that will enable you to unlock your team's true potential. You will learn: Why leaders like Steve Jobs and Elon Musk are so good at inspiring their people to achieve their fullest potential. How to empower each team member to work autonomously—so you don't have to waste your time supervising their actions. How to build a company culture that attracts business "rock stars"—wickedly talented people who perform at stellar levels of excellence and drive innovation in your workplace. How to identify your core competencies and focus your team's talents on the areas of growth that are most crucial to your long-term success. How to be assertive without being aggressive—tailoring your management style to match the unique disposition of each employee. Learn to give instructions in an authentic and genuine fashion, so that your employees come to respect your decisions. How to manage your time, delegate tasks, work with checklists, and create Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to improve workplace efficiency. How to implement the S.M.A.R.T. goal-setting criteria—a system designed to keep your team on track and working (harmoniously) toward your vision. How to ensure that you maintain that elusive "work-life balance" that all entrepreneurs struggle to achieve. And much, much more!
