About this listen

Positive leaders are able to dramatically expand their people’s - and their own - capacity for excellence. And they accomplish this without enormous expenditures or huge heroic gestures.

Here, leading scholars including Adam Grant, author of the best-selling Give and Take, positive organizational scholarship movement cofounders Kim Cameron and Robert Quinn, and 13 others describe how this is being done at companies like Wells Fargo, Ford, Kelly Services, Burt’s Bees, Connecticut’s Griffin Hospital, Michigan-based Zingerman’s Community of Businesses, and many others.

The authors show that, like the butterfly in Brazil whose flapping wings create a typhoon in Texas, you can create profound positive change in your organization through simple actions and attitude shifts.

Great book, get the most out of you and your people!

An overview of various aspects of positive psychology in the work place.
I like the succinct explanations of the various topics and the case studies that illustrate how to implement them and the possible benefits.
I would recommend this book for managers and leaders that are facing budget challenges and expectations of higher performance at the same time.
The secrets to how to perform better AND enjoy work more are here.
