Summary
Every team has a manager.... But not every team is lucky enough to have a true leader. Get ready to break the mold! Did you know that 82 percent of employees would consider quitting their job because of a bad boss? And it isn’t just that you don’t want to be a bad boss…. You don’t want to be a boss at all – you want to be a leader. A boss commands…. A leader inspires and influences – and that’s the route to happy employees, a dedicated workforce, and an organization that achieves its goals. Whether you’re a new manager, an aspiring one, or an experienced manager or business owner, there’s always more to learn…and there’s always room to develop your leadership skills so that you can be sure you’re an inspirational and empathetic leader… and not a disconnected boss. It all starts with the workplace culture you cultivate… one that is positive, inclusive, and authentic…one that motivates your team to go above and beyond…and to do so happily.
Any successful organization has, at its core, a team that trusts and respects its leaders and is willing to do what it takes to help the company reach its goals…and behind every team like this, there’s a leader who knows just what to do to steer the ship. You can be that leader. And with this comprehensive guide by your side, you’ll have something to refer to every time you flounder. Inside, you’ll discover: 5 critical reasons why company culture is so important – know your why before you get to the how5 levels of leadership – and how you can make sure you’re always progressing. Everything you need to know about impostor syndrome – and how you can kick it to the curb! The surprising role of emotional intelligence in successful leadership… and how to develop yours. The one person you need to manage before you can lead everyone else…plus top tips for doing so successfully. The #1 thing that brings a team together – and the red flags that tell you when it’s missing.

Lots to Like!
First of all, I loved the narration! It was slightly fast, but I enjoyed the very professional delivery. Secondly, I really liked how thorough this book is. While it's not super long and is easily digestible, I felt it covered a lot of ground and was very comprehensive. Third, the title and cover are great...and is really what drew me to the book originally. Speaking of the title...I do think good managers are important, but leadership is vital to a company's survival, and if you can have both, then there's a much high probability of success! This book was well-researched and thoughtful, and I would recommend it to anyone desiring to create a high-performance-driven and loyal culture in the workplace.

Thought Provoking
I would have paper and pen ready, this book is very thought provoking, practical and helpful. Looking at what managers need is not more cracking whip, carrots and external motivation. The internal environment of cooperation and synergy is what drives business. The word culture in the workplace gets over used and misappropriated too often. This book gives practical tools to influx cooperation and culture in work.

Relatable and inspiring
As someone who was both an employee in the past and now, more recently as a leader managing my own company and, therefore people, I related a lot to many parts of this audiobook, especially the section talking about the impostor syndrome.
We now live in an age where is more and more important to create a positive work culture, and to be a true leader who cultivates a healthy work environment, cultivates trust, and also knows how to motivate people. No business in this world can succeed without good employees, and is up to leaders to motivate and make an employee want to stick around long term. This audiobook covers on all of these topics, includes examples, questions one must ask themselves in their journey of becoming a better leader and more. This is a resource I highly recommend to both new and more experienced managers - good leadership is no longer optional, but a must if you want to have a thriving business!

Excellent and Informative
This is an excellent audiobook aimed at fostering a culture of true leadership in the workplace. The book is packed with tons of useful information and strategies, all set out in a clear way that’s easy to understand and follow. And the narration is great too. Having been in toxic work environments before I gained a lot from this book and totally resonate with the concept of if you look after your staff, they will look after you (and your company!). John McCann and Katie McCann do an amazing job. Recommend!
