Executives set aggressive goals, so managers drive their teams to burnout trying to deliver.

They will learn how to: Stamp out the corrosive win-at-all-costs mentality * Focus on the game, not just the score * Reinforce behaviors that produce results * Sustain energy and momentum * Correct poor performance without drama * Build productive relationships * Be the leader people want to work for Today's hypercompetitive economy has created tense, overextended workplaces. Keep it productive, rewarding, and even fun with this one-stop success kit.
