Everyone wants to be a leader. But what employees really need today is a great boss.
The data are clear: 70% of what determines whether an employee is engaged at work comes down to one thing: the person they report to. Not compensation or benefits. Not corporate culture initiatives. Their boss.
Becoming a Better Boss is a people-centric leadership guide for managers who want to be the boss their employees need today. Drawing on decades of experience as a hospital CEO and as an adviser to leadership teams across the country, Burl Stamp offers insightful storytelling and a practical, real-world framework for leaders who are working hard but sense their teams aren't fully with them.
At the heart of the book is the T.E.A.M. Model-four core responsibilities designed to address the root causes of burnout and disengagement: Teach, Empower, Align, and Mentor. Built on evidence-based research and refined over years of work with real managers and their teams, the book gives leaders tools they can use immediately. Stamp's voice is candid throughout, honest about his own failures and hard-won lessons, including advice a trusted colleague gave him early in his career: You run really fast. Slow down every so often and let your team catch up.
If you believe the humanity in leadership is worth nurturing and protecting, this book was written for you.
