About the Summary
It can feel like a rigged game. Executives set aggressive goals, so managers drive their teams to burnout trying to deliver. Or, employees seek connection and support, so managers focus on relationships and fail to make the numbers. The fallout is stress, frustration and disengagement, and not just among team members – two-thirds of managers report being disengaged. Winning Well offers managers a quick, practical action plan. They will learn how to stamp out the corrosive win-at-all-costs mentality; focus on the game, not just the score; reinforce behaviors that produce results; build productive relationships; and be the leader people want to work for.
In This Summary, You Will Learn:
- Why you should emphasize behaviors and not the metrics scorecard.
- The four principles of managers who win well.
- How to lead meetings and make decisions that inspire your team.
- How to help your team solve problems and increase their productivity.
