The Hands-Off Manager - How to Mentor People and Allow Them to Be Successful

Steve Chandler, Duane Black

Beschreibung

The number one reason cited in exit interviews for an employee quitting is “my manager.” Most managers and executives not only aren’t aware of this obvious problem, but probably wouldn’t know what to do about it if they did.Today’s employees do not respond to the old hands-on, militaristic management styles. They are highly independent, individual professionals with their own fully developed ideas. Leaders and managers who try to micro-manage them will inevitably confront wide-spread disgruntlement, absenteeism, and turnover...and increase their own and their employees’ stress levels.In The Hands-Off Manager, Chandler and Black offer a new vision for all managers. With stories, examples, and vibrant activities for the reader to practice, this book shows any manager—new or seasoned—how to coach and mentor employees rather than hover over their shoulders and goad them into action. In this system, each employee’s strengths are honored and honed in a climate of partnership and mutual goal-setting.

What Works - Gender Equality by...

Iris Bohnet

Gender equality is a moral and a business imperative. But unconscious bias holds us back, and de-biasing people’s minds has proven to be difficult and expensive. Diversity training programs have had limited success, and individual effort alone often invites backlash. Behavioral design offers a new solution. By de-biasing organizations instead of individuals, we can make smart changes that have big impacts. Presenting research-based solutions, Iris Bohnet hands us the tools we need to move the needle in classrooms and boardrooms, in hiring and promotion, benefiting businesses, governments, and the lives of millions. What Works is built on new insights into the human mind. It draws on data collected by companies, universities, and governments in Australia, India, Norway, the United Kingdom, the United States, Zambia, and other countries, often in randomized controlled trials. It points out dozens of evidence-based interventions that could be adopted right now and demonstrates how research is addressing gender bias, improving lives and performance. What Works shows what more can be done?often at shockingly low cost and surprisingly high speed.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

Healthcare is one of the most essential pillars of modern society, yet it remains one of the most controversial and deeply flawed systems worldwide. While medical advancements have saved countless lives, the way healthcare is structured and delivered often leaves patients struggling with high costs, limited access, and inconsistent quality of care. The system, which is supposed to heal and protect, frequently feels more like a business prioritizing profit over people.
Across the globe, healthcare models vary significantly. Some countries provide universal healthcare, ensuring that all citizens have access to medical services without financial hardship. Others rely on privatized, insurance-based systems that leave many individuals burdened with medical debt or forced to forgo necessary treatments. Regardless of the model, most systems share a common problem—inefficiencies, corruption, and a lack of patient-centered care.
One of the most alarming aspects of modern healthcare is its commercialization. In many nations, medical treatment has become a commodity rather than a fundamental human right. Pharmaceutical companies, insurance providers, and hospital networks have turned healthcare into a multi-trillion-dollar industry, often at the expense of those who need it most. Prescription drug prices skyrocket without justification, insurance policies are riddled with loopholes designed to deny coverage, and hospitals charge exorbitant fees for basic services. Instead of prioritizing patient well-being, financial incentives drive medical decisions, sometimes leading to unnecessary procedures, overprescription of medications, and inequitable access to care.
