SUMMARY - Nine Lies About Work: A Freethinking Leader’s Guide To The Real World By Marcus Buckingham And Ashley Goodall

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. As you read this summary, you will learn to identify myths about the work in order to deal with them as a leader who is aware of the reality on the ground. You will also learn : what your employees care about most; that the number of people who trust you is a useful measure of your leadership qualities; that it is better to adapt assignments to the profiles and personalities of employees; how to set objectives effectively. Certain professional practices often prove to be sources of frustration for employees. This is particularly the case with measures supposed to make life easier for employees, which are not well received by them. For example, the manager will never be able to give you a completely objective rating on your work. Indeed, in working life, there is a set of tools and processes put in place because of these preconceived ideas. However, these elements have a counter-productive effect, because they limit the employee's free will, which then becomes less autonomous. As a leader, you need to be able to recognize these corporate myths so that you don't put your teams through them. How do you react to such situations?
