Lead Employees To Success
Not Out The Door

An Employee's Perspective
on Leading the Charge
for Change in the Workplace

Do you have a problem with
someone in your workplace?
A boss, a co-worker, a friend?
Go ahead - ask Wendy about it.

Her "Dear BetterBossBooks" blog is there for you.

Food for thought. An interesting viewpoint from an employee's angle on leadership. Typically we focus on the executive's advice on how to lead, but rarely do we take the time to understand it from the employee's side. The author points out key factors in establishing credibility and success as a leader. Main take aways are:

1) Instill Trust

2) Show an Emotional Investment

3) Be a Resource

4) Inspire & Motivate

5) Effectively Communicate

Good insight with common sense recommendations.

Author, speaker,
Employer/Employee

Drawing on her eighteen years in the corporate world and extensive research on employee satisfaction, Wendy Duncan pulls from her interactions with ineffective managers, as well as highly effective leaders, to provide a constructive commentary. Her "back to basics" and "just ask" approach is direct and refreshing while reminding the reader they will accomplish more by treating people with respect and by emotionally investing in them, than through intimidation tactics.
