About this audiobook
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 Rene 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.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5well spoken with enough examples and further book recommendations, good audio book
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Best book ever. I must read for every boss. Thanks
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Not profound but a good reminder of things for any boss to consider.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Such a great book. I am certainly recommending it to people and coming back to read my notes and listen to it as often as I require.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5That was a great discovery, straight to the point. I’ll be considering other Wickman’s books
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It was a good book, a lot of common sense stuff to me but still a good book nonetheless.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Quick read or listen. A lot of focus on EOS and Traction. A bit of a commercial, but helpful info.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I liked how well this book gets to the essential principles and practices necessary for leading people. It prescribes a system, some of which I found a bit formulaic in directions that didn’t completely resonate with me. That observation is from someone with decades of experience. A tenured manager could easily adapt much of this book, adding their own approach. A new leader would do well to follow the author’s system fully.
