About this listen
Become a manager that makes a difference and can inspire a team.
Every manager wants to succeed, lead their team well, be acknowledged by the boss, and benefit their company or organization. However, it is much more easily said than done. It takes specific skills, traits, and actions for a manager to truly fill the role well. Yet, many people do not possess these skills and end up either floundering or failing completely. When this happens it costs the company money, teamwork falls apart, and employees quit their jobs, tensions rise, and deadlines are not met, people begin arguing and bickering, and you may one day find that your job is on the line.
You don’t have to follow in this path of confusion, frustration, and failure. You can make a better choice, a choice to learn and improve yourself. While there will be many steps along the way, as there there is much to learn, you can get a guide to each of these steps within the sections of this audiobook. By dedicating yourself to learn the lessons I teach, you can surpass simply succeeding, and instead, truly excel.
Some of the lessons you will find include:
- How to recognize talent during the hiring process.
- Tips to keep in mind to get the best employees on your team.
- The five types of leadership, and which a manager should choose.
- The skills and qualities every manager should possess.
- Three types of listening, and how they will help you succeed.
- When to apologize, and when you should never apologize.
- How to make an apology count and get it done right.
- Investing in your team to make it succeed.
- How to create an Individual Development Plan.
- Making the tough decisions when the going gets tough.
- The importance of confidence, and how to boost it.
- Which rules should be followed, and which should be broken.
- Communication is key, and how to use it.
- Leading a team of individuals.
This audiobook provides you with a wealth of easily understood information and actionable steps you can take to make a difference in your professional life truly. Not only will you become a better manager, but you will also become a better employee, mentor, leader, and friend. Many other books on the market that claim to help you be a better manager are lacking in one big area: They aren’t books for managers. Why is that? These books, while claiming to be for managers, are only standard leadership books. And, while a manager must be able to lead, that is only one part of the job. There are many other aspects that these books ignore. However, with this audiobook, you can truly get a comprehensive understanding of what is required as a manager, where you should focus on developing, and how you can actively grow into the manager your team needs.
Don’t allow this chance to pass you by. One year from now, where do you want to see yourself: Continuing to buckle under the stress of a job you are unable to excel in? Or becoming a top-class manager that benefits your entire team and company? A person and manager that you can be proud of?
The choice is yours.

Questioning thousands of parents and educators, Dr. Wayne Dyer learned firsthand what people really want for their children. They don't particularly want their kids to go to fancy schools, acquire riches, or live "the good life". They do want them to have personal integrity and high self-esteem, and to grow up with love and peace in their hearts. Children raised the Wayne Dyer way feel useful and needed. They are inner- rather than outer-directed. They live a stress-free life naturally, without resorting to drugs.

Story
People are the problem. They're always the problem. If a business person goes home frustrated, if they talk with their significant other about it, if they lay awake at night stewing about it, inevitably the problem is some person at work - a colleague, subordinate, or boss. Handling people issues is every leader's major headache. It's what takes up the majority of their time and - more important - the bulk of their head space. Every leader can and must develop this most important of all management skills.
