Download or read book The Un Bossy Boss written by Gary Magenta and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-26 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great Managers bring out the best in their employees. Individual contributors are responsible for bringing their best selves to work, while managers are responsible for bringing out the best in others. These are two very different things. When an individual contributor succeeds in their role, they are typically promoted to manager and suddenly in charge of other people. They soon realize managing others isn't easy, and many are ill prepared. Lacking the skills to effectively engage employees, many new managers follow an old-school approach - deciding what must be done, telling employees what to do and how to do it, and checking up on them from time to time. Through humor and real-life case studies, The Un-Bossy Boss shows how this old "yell and tell" model of managing has become outdated and ineffective, and offers managers a clear and tangible roadmap to success. Gary Magenta's 12 Powerful Questions help turn traditional manager/employee relationships into something greater and more impactful. By following Gary's recommendations, ordinary managers can become Great Managers who take a more interactive approach, one that reveals employees' motivations and beliefs and invites them to be a part of co-creating solutions so they and the company can soar to new heights.

A woman’s field guide to the new frontier of professional development—working with other women Women-to-women relationships in the workplace are . . . complicated. When they’re good, they’re great.

It’s about transforming a toxic relationship into one that benefits and supports both of you. This book is also for women who engage in mean behavior . . . but don’t know it. After all, who hasn’t gossiped about a female coworker? Who hasn’t rolled her eyes in the presence of a woman she doesn’t like? Who hasn’t scanned another woman head to toe—which is just a nonverbal way of saying, “You’ve just been judged”? The authors provide invaluable advice to the more subtle ways of being mean—even if they’re not intended. With a workforce composed of a higher percentage of women than ever, workplace dynamics have changed.
