Courage goes to work - Bill Treasurer

The hardest part of a manager's job isn't keeping things organized, meeting deadlines, or staying on budget. It's dealing with people who are too comfortable doing things the way they've always been done or too afraid to do things differently--workers who are, as author Bill Treasurer puts it, too "comfeartable." To combat this affliction, Treasurer proposes a bold antidote: courage. In Courage Goes to Work, he lays out a comprehensive, step-by-step process that treats courage as a skill that can be developed like any other. Drawing on a variety of vivid real-world examples, Treasurer offers detailed advice on building three specific kinds of courage in a workforce: try courage, having the guts to take initiative; trust courage, being willing to follow the lead of others; and tell courage, being honest and assertive with co-workers and bosses. With more courage, workers gain the necessary confidence to take on harder projects, embrace company changes with more enthusiasm, and extend themselves in ways that will benefit their careers and their company. A more courageous workforce is a win for everybody.
