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. Learn how to develop a standout, successful business by putting people at the heart. Top-tier business consultant Annie Hyman Pratt knows that the key to a successful business is the team behind it. Most business books on shelves today focus on either the structure part (processes) or the culture part (values). What's missing? The all-important 'people part' - the often hidden, often misunderstood area of a business where team members and team leaders interact and have their greatest impact. As Annie reveals the power and promise of this missing link, you'll discover: * the secret of self-leadership - the way you show up as an individual in your work and how to perform effectively in the face of pressure or stress * the key to effective teamwork - the way team members interact, especially in times of challenge or change * how these two abilities together create the conditions for a business to perform at its best - and for leaders to have the positive impact they desire * a wealth of practical tools and techniques for creative thinking, decision making, problem solving, negotiating and more In a world where the rate of change is increasing exponentially, with burnout and overwhelm at epidemic levels, it's more essential than ever to get this part right.
