We all know what Bad Bosses look like. But most leaders who feel challenged in their roles aren’t actually Bad Bosses. They’re just a little...funky.
Relatable, irreverent, and raw, Un-funk Yourself is a new kind of leadership book for executives and managers who are tired of vague theories and surface-level tactics that don’t create meaningful change for them, their teams, and company culture. With laugh-out-loud stories, pointed observations, and science-backed practices, Morash takes you on a journey into your own psyche and helps you get a handle not only on your day-to-day leadership and communication but also the assumptions, beliefs, and identity factors that are getting in the way of your success as a leader.
In this book, you can expect to encounter: Why “mindless” leadership is one of the biggest drivers of workplace strife The origins of your personal identity and how they play out in your life and leadership Your assumptions, stereotypes, and judgments—aka, your identity’s funked-up cousins What emotional intelligence (EQ) actually looks like and why we need it How to hire, onboard, and fire mindfully and without all the drama Your Communication Compass style and how to use it to relate more deeply to others
A hugely-satisfying dive into the practical application of mindfulness, Un-funk Yourself is the leadership book you never knew you needed.
