About this listen

Narrated by author Michael Kerr, this book is about front line leadership. It's for anyone, at any level, who wants to be happier at work, create a more positive, happier workplace, and be more successful in their career.

The Jerk-Free Workplace celebrates the fundamental idea that anyone can be a leader, regardless of their position or status. It celebrates the idea that there is a profound difference between being an employee and being a leader; between being a manager and being a leader. It celebrates the mantra, "We are leaders leading leaders."

And it's not just about identifying and giving jerky work behaviors the boot! The Jerk-Free Workplace is an inspiring and slightly irreverent roadmap on how to take the lead when you’re not the boss (although you’ll definitely want to slip a copy onto your boss’s desk, it's just as relevant for them.).

It offers up inspiring, practical ideas on how to maintain a more positive and resilient attitude at work; highlights the 6 key leadership traits that effective front line leaders must embrace; inspiring ideas on how to communicate more effectively (including how to master difficult conversations at work); ideas on how to adopt a service-first approach at work, and how inspiring leaders lead with humor.

It's a fairly quick, oftentimes funny listen, and packed with great ideas. It's a book that ideally, should be listen by everyone you work with—after all, the most effective way to transform your workplace into something truly amazing, is by creating as many leaders as possible who are more intentional about how they contribute to your workplace culture.
