Ego Free Leadership ― Ending the Unconscious Habits That Hijack Your Business
商品資訊
商品簡介
?In 2005, Brandon Black was promoted to CEO of Encore Capital, a company struggling to navigate an increasingly difficult business environment. Faced with a rapidly declining stock price and low workplace morale, Brandon knew he needed to make a change—and fast. He signed his executive team up for a series of leadership development seminars hosted by Learning as Leadership (LaL) and its president, Shayne Hughes. LaL offered a novel approach to solving dysfunctional corporate culture by exposing the destructive effects of the ego and identifying the unproductive and unconscious habits that cause individuals to work against each other.
Leveraging tools and insights gleaned through their partnership with Shayne and LaL, Encore’s leadership team began to solve problems collectively, prioritize resources without drama, and focus on initiatives that would have the greatest financial benefit. Three years later, in the midst of a financial crisis that forced 90% of its competitors to shutter operations or file for bankruptcy, Encore had emerged as a thriving company, with its stock price rising 1200% and profits increasing by 300%. Incorporating both Brandon and Shayne’s unique perspectives, Ego Free Leadership walks readers through Encore’s incredible success story and offers a roadmap for eliminating the destructive forces within their own team or company.
