paradoja, la nueva ed. (Méx.)

What qualities does it take to be a good boss? How does one gain the authority and credibility needed to lead effectively? This book answers these and many other questions, and reminds us of the universal principles that allow us to collaborate with others, whether at work or in the family sphere: -There is no authority without respect. -Respect is not based on imposition or fear, but on integrity, sincerity, and empathy for others. -We cannot change anyone; we can only change ourselves. -Work is done by people, and good work cannot be done without nurturing human relationships. The principles of leadership are so simple that we have completely forgotten them. We confuse authority with power and respect with fear, which leads to tense and distrustful relationships between bosses and subordinates, and to a sad result: when a team works to please the boss, who is really taking care of the work? In this new edition of The Paradox, the author accompanies us with a prologue in which he relates the experience that the success of this book and its continuation, "The Keys to the Paradox," has brought him, and synthesizes the new teachings that have allowed his leadership principles to be successfully applied worldwide.
