Description

Turn the hidden pressures of management into astonishing results and become the boss everyone wants to work for. This must-read guide from elite executive coach Sabina Nawaz reveals the leadership secrets of highly successful managers.

Whether you're in the C-Suite or newly promoted, one thing is clear: you're succeeding at your job. But are you reaching your full potential as a manager? Most top performers suspect they aren't, and Sabina Nawaz, former Microsoft executive and elite Fortune 500 coach, says they're usually right. Unfortunately, it's often hard to recognize the problem or know how to address it.

In You're the Boss, Nawaz taps her experience and proprietary data drawn from analyzing and advising executives at organizations like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Motorola, Nordstrom, and the United Nations. Her work reveals a simple truth: as our job expands, the added pressure to perform will corrupt our actions, and our increased power will blind us to the impact of those actions. It's all too easy for even the most well-intentioned executive to become the boss nobody wants to work for.

You're the Boss offers a new, evidence-based framework for managing pressure and power with grace and intelligence. Nawaz's potent, tried-and-tested, strategies guide you to anticipate and compensate for the unavoidable hazards of leadership without changing who you are. Based on over two decades of coaching and in-depth research into the psychology of behavior and relationships, You're the Boss is your executive coach in book form. Discover a powerful, proven set of tools for managing yourself and others, navigating working relationships, and communicating effectively in every context. Become the boss you want to be--and others need--while experiencing less stress and greater impact.
