Great listen for any manager.

Great listen for any manager or aspiring manager. Take the time to listen, re-listen, notate and put into practice.

Good points but lacked authenticity

One of the main points is to understand your staff and make honest relationships. Several times the author wouldnt make me beleive what he was saying due to fake laughs about certain comments. This isn't a good trait to pick up on when relaying these themes back to your team therefore I turned off after 1t minutes
