Overall it's a great audiobook and the narrator did a excellent job delivering the message.

How to lead for staff retention from two leaders

Time-tested advice from two entrepreneurs with an emphasis on leading over (micro)managing. Outstanding examples on the right way and wrong way to motivate staff and key points from scientific studies on successful business practices. The motif is simple: give a damn about your people and they will give a damn about you and your business (and not resign). As they say, "be an empathetic leader not a disconnected boss" by fostering a supportive, rather than toxic work environment.

Great Ways to Engage Your Employees!

As someone who spent their career in middle management, I was able to identify with this book as both a manager and an employee. I was surprised and encouraged by some of the statistics that stated employees care more about being happy at their job than how much money they earn. Isn't treating your employees with dignity and encouragement the same concept we should be using in all of our relationships! It is time to treat everyone in your life with respect and there are many great ideas in this book on how to do that in the work place. Great read for every manager.
