Work That Matters Podcast

Being a manager, or boss, is not easy. Managers need to balance their workload and inspire their team to do their best work. It takes patience, tenacity, grit, even humor to juggle the demands of being the boss. So, I thought it was important to take time to look at what makes a great boss. I invited author and consultant Gary Magenta, VP of Root. Root is a boutique consultancy that focuses on “strategy execution through people.”® They do phenomenal work in helping organizations set strategy through highly engaging practices. In this interview, Gary and I use his book The Unbossy Boss to explore the elements to being a better boss that unlocks the potential in people. We’ll discuss the key secret to being a great boss. Be sure to listen for the secret. We unveil it at the beginning of the interview.  Share your questions or suggestions for future guests by emailing Shawn at shawn [at] switchandshift [dot] com.
