Thinking Outside the Boss
The Four Uncommon Leadership Principles to Equip Your People and Build Your Organization
In a world obsessed with leadership, lots of organizations and the people who are at the helm get sidetracked in the haze of finding simple solutions and looking good. They avoid the fundamentals of what it authentically means to be accountable for developing a plan and encouraging the team to put it into action.
When this wrongminded direction takes place, a new mindset is necessary, one that prioritizes employees and empowers everyone to think outside the boss. Oskhar Pineda's businesses were a success in the construction industry because he used four pillars—vulnerability, communication, trust, and mission. These are the concepts needed for your organization too. You can reach greater heights than you ever thought possible when you make sure to put your employees first. It not only improves their quality of life, it maximizes your productivity.
Businesses don't have to choose profits over people. Pineda’s three decades of keeping team members engaged, are the antithesis of that misguided thinking. If the people who do the work in an organization are happy, the quality of their rises, customers are pleased, and business booms.
The traditional lures, benefits, and perks don't promote employee commitment and loyalty. The pandemic was a painful reminder that the fundamentals of leadership and the foundation of what creates a great business is always about putting employees first—this is thinking outside the boss.
