A POWERFUL MODEL FOR EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP
Are you a badger or a doormat? This may sound like a strange question to ask a leader, but these two caricatures encapsulate the behaviour of leaders who struggle with focusing their time effectively. A 'Badger Boss' is busy doing their own thing and is never seen by their team from dawn to dusk; a 'Doormat Boss' never gets anything done because they are constantly at the beck and call of other people.

Memorable caricatures are used throughout the book to show extreme leadership styles and help you recognise which behaviours to avoid and which to put into practice more often. Rosie Miller's engaging, easy-to-read book is full of serious advice on how to avoid these extremes and how to be a balanced, focused leader who gets results.
