If you want your business to be a best place to work, where everyone who enters says “WOW!”, you need to cultivate “best-ever bosses”, the kind who inspire everyone around them to be the best they can be. Leadership expert Deb Boelkes provides a simple blueprint for nurturing your existing team leaders to achieve “best-ever boss” status.

Award-winning Best Places to Work have a powerful secret weapon: Best-ever bosses. Wherever they are found in an organization, these enthusiastic, inspiring and supporting team leaders make each work day an amazing one for those on the team because there virtually all of them are working in the zone – the WOW zone.

Best-ever bosses energize just about everyone around them to be the best they can be. Engaged team members give their best efforts and, in turn, influence others around them to do the same. The magnificence grows and becomes contagious. It creates a WOW factor. Leadership expert Deb Boelkes says if you can turn your organization into a WOW factor workplace, you can gain a distinct industry advantage in today’s near full employment economy.

“It’s incredible what can happen when you have a great boss. Even more incredible are the kind of WOW results that can happen when your great boss has his or her own great boss. The WOW factor can spread like wildfire,” explains Boelkes, author of The WOW Factor Workplace: How to Create a Best Place to Work Culture, launching next month (Business World Rising, ISBN: 978-1-7340761-0-3, $19.95, businessworldrising.com/books). “These highly valuable leaders can do a lot of heavy lifting for you just by tapping into the talent and passion that already lies within … but may currently be left untapped. Imagine how much more successful you could be if the managers in your organization evolved into best-ever bosses.”

Boelkes will read excerpts from a few of the many compelling true stories and executive interviews highlighted in The WOW Factor Workplace at a special book launch celebration to be held at the Omni Amelia Island Plantation Resort on Tuesday, December 10, from 4:00 to 6:00 pm. Anyone interested in attending this event is encouraged to contact Deb Boelkes at [email protected] or 904-310-9602 or for details.
