Communication is essential in a healthy organization. But all too often when we interact with people - especially those who report to us - we simply tell them what we think they need to know. This shuts them down. To generate bold new ideas, to avoid disastrous mistakes, to develop agility and flexibility, we need to practice Humble Inquiry. Ed Schein defines Humble Inquiry as "the fine art of drawing someone out, of asking questions to which you do not know the answer, of building a relationship based on curiosity and interest in the other person."

Even for the most gifted individuals, the process of becoming a leader is an arduous, albeit rewarding, journey of continuous learning and self-development. The initial test along the path is so fundamental that we often overlook it: becoming a boss for the first time. That's a shame, because the trials involved in this rite of passage have serious consequences for both the individual and the organization. For a decade and a half, the author has studied people making major career transitions to management.

Very practical book
- By Leo on 02-16-16
Publisher's Summary
You never dreamed being the boss would be so hard. You're caught in a web of conflicting expectations from subordinates, your supervisor, peers, and customers. You're not alone.
As Linda Hill and Kent Lineback reveal in Being the Boss, becoming an effective manager is a painful, difficult journey. It's trial and error, endless effort, and slowly acquired personal insight. Many managers never complete the journey. At best, they just learn to get by. At worst, they become terrible bosses.
This new book explains how to avoid that fate, by mastering three imperatives:
- Manage yourself: Learn that management isn't about getting things done yourself. It's about accomplishing things through others.
- Manage a network: Understand how power and influence work in your organization and build a network of mutually beneficial relationships to navigate your company's complex political environment.
- Manage a team: Forge a high-performing "we" out of all the "I"s who report to you.
Packed with compelling stories and practical guidance, Being the Boss is an indispensable guide for not only first-time managers but all managers seeking to master the most daunting challenges of leadership.

Very usefull
Would you consider the audio edition of Being the Boss to be better than the print version?
no
What did you like best about this story?
The book is divided into three parts, the first part confirmed most of my own findings, the second part, about exercising influence outside of your own team was an eye opener
Would you be willing to try another one of Erik Synnestvedt’s performances?
Never, this was the weakest part of the book. It was almost impossible to get through to what was being said, because of the monotone way it was read, and how every other sentence would finish with the same intonation as the previous.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Just that the voice really annoyed me.

Returning it
What made the experience of listening to Being the Boss the most enjoyable?
I assume the remaining 2/3rds of the book are good. But if I have to hear another sentence from this narrator, I will jump out of the window.
What didn’t you like about Erik Synnestvedt’s performance?
The narration was so annoying that I am returning the book.

Just don't.
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
No, I bought this because it's assigned reading for a class and I thought it would save me some time. I could listen while I ran or drove, but the performance is so bad I chose to just read it instead.
Would you be willing to try another book from Linda A. Hill and Kent L. Lineback ? Why or why not?
Yes, the information is great.
How could the performance have been better?
It's a book about management. The narrator should be able to say the word management. The cadence and inflection were also just totally off. The reading was irksome.
Do you think Being the Boss needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Probably, there are many ways it could be expounded upon.

Useful, Practical Content
What made the experience of listening to Being the Boss the most enjoyable?
The content is very good. It will assist managers/leaders to consciously be aware of various components that they need to keep in mind while leading teams.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Being the Boss?
For me, the most important insight is the articulation that being an effective Boss requires the person to actively manage three components.
Any additional comments?
The narration is below average. I might be harsh here but the narrator really is annoying with his weird ending to each phrase/sentence. It is just irritating.

Where does Being the Boss rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
For this particular topic top in terms of content
What did you like best about this story?
The book is well organized into sections. It flows well from topic to another. Some things may seem obvious but are often missed or ignored. It discusses the common pitfalls of managing others and dealing with a large organization.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
The narrator is awful. He sounds like a teenage valley girl. Absolutley the worst and most annoying narrator.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
No
