Bad Bosses Ruin Lives
The majority of bosses do not wake up in the morning and say to themselves, "Today is a great day to ruin my people's lives." Which is why it's so alarming that almost everyone (99.6%) have had a badd boss, and roughly six out of ten people (57%) leave their job because of their boss. Bad bosses are truly ruining lives.
The truth is, even if you think you're a great boss, you might have bad boss traits lurking inside of you. But we're here to help. This book is a call to action for any boss who instead wants to wake up in the morning and be a great boss! Develop your awareness of the 10 types of bad bosses covered in this book and the traits associated with them. If you recognize yourself (and we promise you will), it's time to accept your bad boss style and take action to enrich lives using the Great Boss Building Block model.
