THIS BOOK WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE AS A MANAGER EASIER The best use of your time as a people leader is to build a team of highly engaged employees. When workers are engaged, they take up less of your valuable time, are more independent, provide stellar customer service, rely on you less, and produce more. This enables you to have more time to focus on your ‘day job,’ because you will spend less time dealing with people’s problems and playing the role of psychologist. Bottom-line, to get the most out of your remote/virtual workers, there are four areas you need to address. Using the simple, proven principles in this book, written by best-selling author Jill Christensen, your remote workers will become engaged, enthused, effective, and productive – and you may actually like going to work again.
Doing some of my own professional development and this book elaborated on some simple concepts to keep remote workers but really all workers engaged. Some practical and actionable items for managers to take away. I really appreciated this author’s no nonsense style of writing and ability to lay the groundwork for engaging your employees.
