while reading, you'll learn to...
Get inside the heads of your people. You can't convince them of anything until you see the world from their perspective.
Think big. If your sales growth last year was 3.5 percent, don't aim for 4 percent this year, aim for 15 percent. Even if you fail, you'll probably do better than you would have with a smaller goal.
Practice "extraordinary authenticity." Show occasional vulnerability and admit when you don't have the answers.
Choose a can-do mind-set. There's a huge difference between a boss who says "We can try this" and one who says "We can do this!"
Cheer for first downs, not just touchdowns. Publicly recognizing and rewarding small wins keeps everyone motivated for the long haul.
Get rid of cynics. In many teams one person will reject your values and spread negative energy. Moving that person out will show everyone else you're serious.
