Kent Lineback Bücher

Are you the boss you need to be? As good as your firm expects you to be? Good enough to achieve your career aspirations? Being the Boss can help, no matter where you are on your journey. In it, Harvard Business School's Linda Hill and executive Kent Lineback combine six decades of research, teaching, practice, and observation to provide the insights and information you need to move forward. Some managers are content with just getting by. But most stop making progress because they don't understand how to become a great boss, what great bosses actually do, or where they currently stand in comparison with where they should be. In this book, the authors show you how to measure yourself against what's required. At the end, you will clearly understand your strengths, where you need to make progress, and how to move forward. Whether you're new or experienced, this book is your guide to becoming the great boss you need to be -- for your firm, your people, and yourself.

A book about how to make work pay and not just in cash, but in experience, satiafaction, and joy.

Before they can effectively manage others, managers have to be adept at managing themselves. That requires truly understanding their own passions, motivations, strengths, and weaknesses. This guide offers sage advice from business greats, including Peter F. Drucker and John P. Kotter, on how managers can improve personal performance and productivity and, in the process, become better managers of those they lead.
