Bad bosses insist that work comes first. They reward workaholism and punish outside interests. Good bosses support balance. They encourage nights & weekends off. Great bosses expect people to put loved ones above their jobs. They forbid missing important family events for work.

Finished this book yesterday and it's a remarkable read. If you are a leader in any corporate position, or a leader in any endeavor of your life, it'll tell you importance of being decisive choosing something to make a difference. It's honest, entertaining and witty, loved it.
