The People Part: Seven Agreements Entrepreneurs and Leaders Make to Build Teams, Accelerate Growth and Banish Burnout for Good

Summary

Growing your business sustainably and successfully isn't just about systems, visions and values. The secret to a thriving business? It's in the team - the people part. Do you want your business to thrive - without having to do and think of everything yourself? Success in business today means responding to change at an ever-increasing pace. Delivering more value with fewer resources is the name of the game. But even when a business is winning, the leaders and teams playing the game often feel like they are losing - plagued by overwhelm and burnout. Most business books try to address this problem with systems, structures and values. What's missing? The 'People Part' - the often-misunderstood area of a business where leaders and team members do the actual thinking, interacting and performing together. Drawing on Annie's 30 years of working with people in business, this dynamic and engaging book outlines seven easy-to-implement agreements to build a high-performance team. You'll learn how to: * lead in a way that supports others to perform at their best, by strengthening your own self-leadership * create psychological safety - the environment that empowers team members to collaborate at the highest levels * develop leaders and team members to take on responsibilities with the same commitment level as the owners * supercharge your team productivity with Annie's signature tools If you're an entrepreneur just starting out, a CEO trying to work 'on' rather than 'in' your business, a leader needing a breakthrough for yourself and your team or a team member wanting to make your best contribution yet, The People Part is for you.
