Winning Well: A Manager’s Guide to Getting Results—Without Losing Your Soul

To succeed in today’s hypercompetitive economy, managers should master creating a productive work environment for employees even as still making numbers.

Tense, overextended workplaces force managers to make a choice from results and relationships. Executives set aggressive goals, so managers drive their teams to deliver, resulting in burnout. Or, employees searching for connection and improve, so managers focal point on relationships and fail to make the numbers. On the other hand, managers wish to achieve both.

In Winning Well, managers will learn to:

• Stamp out the corrosive win-at-all-costs mentality
• Focus on the game, not just the score
• Reinforce behaviors that produce results
• Sustain energy and momentum
• Be the leader people need to work for

To prevent burnout and disengagement, even as still achieving the necessary success for the company, managers should learn to get their employees productive even as creating an environment that makes them need to produce even more.

Winning Well offers a quick, practical action plan for making the workplace productive, rewarding, and even fun.
