520 3 _aThis book pinpoints the one-on-one people leadership behaviors of extraordinary managers and provides strategies for developing the readerinto a "Best Boss." Embedded in a model containing five dimensions, the Best Boss approach presents a self-reinforcing and self-sustaining systemof interaction, based on developing a foundation of trust and respect between manager and direct report that can last a lifetime. The book presents self-assessments and development tactics to facilitate growth in leadership insights and behavior. Moving beyond the individual leader, the authors examine factors within the organization that either promote or discourage "Best Boss" behaviors and suggest strategies for reducing barriers to successful leadership development. Finally, the book examines how the external market preoccupation and quest for shareholder value that is at odds with investments in leadership development and broader stakeholder value is now being reconsidered by economists and business leaders. The book will be of singular assistance to anyone in a leadership role who manages people and aims to impact their motivation, engagement, performance, retention, and career development. It will also provide useful insights to leaders with responsibility for leadership development. Additionally, it provides significant value to two specific audiences: MBA students will find this book of particular value for shaping their leadership approach for enhancing business performance. CEOs and their advisors will find value in this book for gauging their organizations' current state of leadership development, readiness for improvement, and key areas of focus to achieve internal and external recognition as a "Best Boss" organization.
