For managers and team leaders who want their people to bring their best to work, not just show up.
Around the world, employee engagement is in crisis, and command-and-control leadership is a big part of the reason. The Servant Leader's Manifesto is a practical call to a different way of leading: serve your people first, and they will build the results with you. More than 10,000 copies sold.
From the author of Leader Board: The DNA of High Performance Teams, the book shows managers how to lead the most diverse workforce in history with clarity, courage, caring, culture and talent cultivation, the things no system or machine can create for us.
Inside, you will learn how to:
Lead through influence and trust instead of authorityUse positive psychology to build on strengths and give feedback that helpsBuild a great team, not just hire great individualsMeasure progress, not only performance, and put people at the center of the missionLead with love, using ikigai as a model for purpose at workWho it is for: new and experienced managers, supervisors and team leads, and the people who develop them, including leaders in healthcare, schools, nonprofits and churches. It works as a personal read or a shared read for a leadership program or team, and a discussion guide is available for group orders.
We cannot wait for the C-suite to fix the engagement crisis. The managers closest to the people must lead the change, for ourselves and for our teams. This is our manifesto.
