No one is born with “boss” skills. You need to learn how to step up to the role. Maybe you were promoted to boss status because you did a good job as an employee. But it’s going to take more than your good track record to succeed.

Filled with anecdotes, success stories, and qualities of a good boss

How to Be a Great Boss is filled with anecdotes and success stories. You’ll learn how to empower your employees, how to train and motivate through feedback, how to create a positive workplace culture, and much more.

7 core competencies of a great boss

In this book, Joel illustrates how developing the seven core competencies of a great boss can bring every manager from good to great. Here are the seven key qualities of a good boss:

  1. Empowers employees

  2. Provides growth opportunities

  3. Trains through feedback

  4. Makes the tough choices

  5. Gives thanks

  6. Creates a positive workplace culture

  7. Shows employees the future

People don’t leave bad jobs; they leave bad bosses. Don’t let that happen to you

A great boss empowers employees. In this first section, you’ll learn how to:

  1. Delegate responsibility, not just tasks

  2. Share the grand design with your team

  3. Trust your people to perform

  4. Stop micro-managing

  5. Provide clear communication

  6. Identify high-potential people

  7. Provide the freedom to fail

Each section of the book provides you with a do-it-now challenge—three or four actions you can take immediately that will enhance your good boss qualities and put you on the great boss fast track.
