The People Part: Seven Agreements Entrepreneurs and Leaders Make to Build Teams, Accelerate Growth, and Banish Burnout for Good

"The People Part . . . starts with the first principles that most every other leadership book glosses over. This is a nutrient-dense book that will show you how to build a responsive and productive team."
-- Jeff Walker, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Launch

Success in business today means responding to change at an ever-increasing pace--due to factors such as competition, evolving technology, and increasing client expectations. Delivering more value with fewer resources is the name of the game. But even when a business is winning, the leaders and teams playing the game often feel like they are losing--plagued by overwhelm and burnout.

Most business books try to address this problem with systems, structures, and values. What's missing? The "People Part"--the often-misunderstood area of a business where leaders and team members do the actual thinking, interacting, and performing together.

Drawing on Annie's 30 years of working with humans in business, this dynamic and engaging book--available in paperback for the first time--outlines seven easy-to-implement agreements to build a high-performance team.

You'll learn how to:

• Lead in a way that supports others to perform at their best, by strengthening your own Self-Leadership
• Generate a leadership reputation where the best A Players seek to work with you, and stay for the long term
• Create psychological safety--the environment that empowers team members to collaborate at the highest levels
• Develop leaders and team members to take on responsibilities with the same commitment level as the owners
• Supercharge your team productivity
