Description

Buy Nine Lies About Work Old Book, Authored by marcus buckingham, Harvard Business Review Press in hardcover binding in self-help genre from Used Book Store.

You crave feedback; your organization’s culture is key to its success; strategic planning is essential; your competencies should be measured, and weaknesses shored up; leadership matters. These may seem like basic truths, but they are lies. This book reveals nine lies—distortions and faulty assumptions—that cause workplace dysfunction and frustration. However, some leaders recognize the power of individual uniqueness, valuing emergent patterns over received wisdom and evidence over dogma. Through engaging stories and analysis, the authors reveal essential truths: team strength and cohesiveness matter more than company culture; real-time intelligence is more valuable than top-down planning; aligning people’s purpose is more effective than aligning goals; and helpful attention is preferred over constant feedback. This book reveals core truths to help you demonstrate your capabilities to those who depend on you.
