About this listen

If your employees brought their "A-Game" to work every day, what would it mean for your company's performance?

Studies have repeatedly shown that the majority of employees are disengaged at work. But it doesn't have to be this way. Often, the difference between a group of indifferent employees and a fully engaged team comes down to one simple thing - a great boss.

In How to Be a Great Boss, Gino Wickman and René Boer present a straightforward, practical approach to help bosses at all levels of an organization get the most from their people. They share time-tested tools that have worked for more than 30,000 bosses in every industry. You can learn to be a great boss - and dramatically improve both your organization's performance and your team's excitement about their work.

This is a must read for anyone leading a team. You don't know what your employees know that is holding you back.

Great Review and Reminder

If you’ve read traction and haven’t really moved forward with it this is a great first step and reminder what to do as a leader/manager/boss. Most of us know what to do but sometimes we just need a little kick in the right direction.

Wasn’t particularly fond of the narrating voice but it wasn’t horrible. I have limited time to read so I use the time in the car and audible is a perfect solution.

Gino Wickman is a true business GURU

I’ve applied the principles in his traction to literally 10x my business and 1 year, and now I can see the potential in my leadership ability if I apply the books in the principles in this one. Always fantastic, straight to the point, and effective. Could not ask for more, true fan of Gino’s work. Very grateful for his work.

Great Wisdom

This book, is along the same lines with a lot of Gino's books. They are very pragmatic and simple. I appreciate that they have not expanded this book beyond what it really needed to be. There are some very powerful, practical and simple things that can be implemented with this one.

Highly highly recommended for anyone in management and leadership.
