007: So, You're the Boss!

---

Many business owners and leaders confuse 'being the boss' with being influencial as a means of getting things done.  This topic explores how leaders can improve their standing with their teams so things run smoother and people work harder.
​

Key discussion points:

1. Why do so many bosses get little or no respect?
2. As a boss, are you really in control?  Things to look for that say you aren't
3. How to become a great boss that gets respect and attracts great employees.
4. Things that influence people and make them want to support and follow you.  (how you communicate, how you associate, how you make decisions, how you act)

​

Conclusions:
It's vital to be aware of how engaged your employees are and why they might not be doing their best.  It's also important to understand what you may be doing to drive this situation and whether or not your level of respect needs a tune up.  ​Before you go spending thousands of $$ on assessments and personality tests, do some sole searching.  The changes you make in yourself will have far greater impact on your organization.
