Leaders aren't always who you think they are. Eventually, most of
us will be called on to lead someone, whether it's a department, a
shift, a project team or a new employee. And speaker, strategist,
and author Liz Jazwiec, RN, says being a good leader requires
certain traits: A dash of fearlessness, the ability to tell it like
it is, the willingness to learn from and laugh at your mistakes?and
Cupcake, you're gonna make some Plenty of books have been written
on leadership, but few have told the brutal -- and funny -- truth
quite like Hey Cupcake We Are ALL Leaders. Bringing back the
trademark slightly sarcastic style that readers loved in Eat THAT
Cookie, Liz focuses on bringing out the great leader that exists in
all of us. Funny, uplifting and relatable, Hey Cupcake is packed
with hilarious anecdotes and solid advice from Liz's own
experiences as a leader. Though much of her career has been spent
in the healthcare industry, the insights she has learned (usually
the hard way ) throughout her career will benefit leaders in every
industry and at every level. Readers will learn: How to GET OVER IT
and help your employees get over it, too (Liz coins a new phrase,
"Pink ROBE Rage") * Liz's amusing approach to managing change (it
involves the acronym BARF) * How to keep your team from descending
into the deep, dark Valley of Despair * Why (upfront) buy-in is BS:
Just ask the "Hello" Police * How to deal with problem employees
and button pushers (Evil Queens, Wicked Poisoners, Calamity Janes,
and more) * Why we naturally fall back on We vs. They and how to
stop it now * How to practice the art of "butt-kissing with a
purpose" (and other forms of managing up your own leader ) * A
quick and easy "test" that will help you hire the right people *
How an ugly red nightgown can teach us to tell others what we
really need * Why sometimes being a great leader resembles curbside
clean up Hey Cupcake is a wake-up call for leaders to move beyond
