It can feel like a rigged game. Executives set impossible goals, so
managers drive their teams to burnout trying to deliver. Employees
demand 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.
To succeed, managers need balance: they must push people to achieve
while creating an environment that makes them truly want to. Winning
Well offers a quick, practical action plan--complete with examples,
stories, online assessments, and more--for getting the results you need.
Managers 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
- Set clear expectations--delegating outcomes rather than focusing on
process
- Celebrate even small successes
- Correct poor performance using the INSPIRE accountability method
- Demonstrate confidence and humility
- Energize teams to sustain excellent performance
- And more
Today's hypercompetitive economy has created tense, overextended
workplaces. Keep it productive, rewarding, and even fun with this
