Download Permission to Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong AudioBook Free
The inspiring, unlikely, laugh-out-loud account of how one woman discovered to lead - and exactly how she ultimately succeeded, not despite her many faults, but because of them. This is the account of how Kristen Hadeed built Student Maid, a cleaning company where people are happy, loyal, effective, and empowered, even while they're mopping flooring and scrubbing toilets. It's the account of how she proceeded to go from as an almost comically inept head to a sought-after CEO who instructs others how to lead. Hadeed unintentionally launched Student Maid while participating in college 10 years ago. Since then, Student Maid has applied a huge selection of students and it is widely recognized because of its industry-leading retention rate and its culture of trust and accountability. But Kristen and her company were no right away sensation. Actually they were next to nothing at all. On the way, Kristen first got it wrong almost normally as she first got it right. Offering hugs instead of feedback, fixing errors instead of enforcing accountability, and hosting functions instead of cultivating meaningful relationships were simply a handful of her many faults. But Kristen's willingness to declare and learn from those faults helped her give her people the opportunity to learn from their own screw-ups, too. Permission to Screw Up dismisses the idea that leaders and organizations should try to be perfect. It encourages people of all age ranges to go for it and learn to lead by behaving rather than longing or thinking. Through the brutally honest and often hilarious bank account of her own battles, Kristen encourages us to embrace our failures and shows that we'll be better leaders when we do.
