YOUR LEADERS SUCK, BUT IT'S NOT THEIR FAULT
It takes a lifetime of learning to lead. But who has time to wait? Most managers weren’t born knowing how to lead, who leaders are, and what leaders really do. But it’s not their fault. Why should your organization suffer while sucky leaders learn by trial and error – and kill your organization from within – when this book delivers research-based, scientifically proven, low-risk, high-reward ways to make executives and managers better leaders? In an age of an ever-escalating war for talent, training leaders has never been more critical in the history of business.
Within every human is a leader capable of leading other humans. The more leaders we have—and the better those leaders perform—the greater return on investment we receive from our leader assets. The right leaders make it easier for the organization to fill jobs with the correct people, retain top talent, and keep employees fully engaged. Today, this is no easy feat, and paying higher wages isn’t the answer. When it comes to attracting and retaining better employees, it comes down to leaders fostering positive relationships at work.
Bryan Deptula, Ph.D. wrote this book to empower you to take control of your present and future and give you practical wisdom to improve your life and leadership. Your Leaders Suck is written by a reformed sucky leader—someone who has been in your shoes and lived the best and worst parts of a leader’s life. Why do I do it? Because I care, and you should care, too. Because I want you—and you should want for yourself—your employees and your organization to be better, more profitable, live your best life, and become your best-self.
Your problems are (a) your leaders suck and (b) because your leaders don’t know how to lead, your employees quit their bosses, causing you to hemorrhage money, knowledge, and productivity.
Your company’s ability to win the ongoing talent war hinges on the ability of your most important asset—your leaders—to get work done with and through people to create value, motivate their team to perform, keep employees engaged, attract and retain top talent, and make the company money.
