COMPASSION And COMMAND: How New Managers Master People, Problems, and Performance

MOST NEW MANAGERS DON'T FAIL BECAUSE THEY DON'T CARE. THEY FAIL BECAUSE THEY'RE TOO COMPASSIONATE OR TOO COMMANDING.

In COMPASSION And COMMAND, Bill Ault hands you the playbook to find the balance that works.

If you're a new manager or even a seasoned one still figuring it out, this book shows you how to build a management style that commands respect and keeps your humanity intact.

No fluff. No jargon. Just clear strategies, honest insights, and proven tools from someone who's been there: on the ground as a manager, in the trenches as a CEO, and now as a coach helping others thrive.

You'll discover how to develop your authentic management persona, manage performance, and lead a team without burning out or becoming the type of boss you hated. And whether you're naturally too nice or a bit tough, you'll learn how to lead with heart and backbone.

You'll tackle your biggest challenges with empathy and authority: confrontation, decision-making, managing problem people, and even letting folks go with confidence and care.

If your promotion came without an instruction manual, then COMPASSION And COMMAND is your real-world guide to doing the job and doing it well.
