Leadership is Personal - People Follow You
What do 75% of the workforce say is the most stressful part of their jobs?
Brace yourself ... it just might be you.
According to Robert Hogan, an international authority on leadership and organizational effectiveness, 75 percent of the workforce feel that their bosses are the most stressful part of their jobs.
Most of us have suffered through a bad boss. The jerk who belittles subordinates in front of their coworkers. The guy who storms through the office and puts everybody on edge. The boss who talks over you just as you’re about to explain your problem or the one who can never make a decision.
How an employee feels about his or her manager is a better predictor of long-term retention, satisfaction and performance than any other factor in the work place.
Jeb Blount, author of the new book, People Follow You, knows that leadership is personal. "When all else is stripped away," Jeb says, "people don't work for a company or a paycheck, perks or slogans, people work for you."
In interview after interview with well-respected leaders Jeb heard the same mantra: The best leaders are the best relationship builders. In this excellent new book, Jeb shares seven essential principles, five core practices, and a simple formula that will help you become a leader who engenders respect, trust and loyalty among the people you lead.
We highly recommend that you take a moment now to read the first chapter here.
