Better Than Perfect

What the most exceptional bosses and employees do differently—and how they make the workplace better for everyone. "Some nights I go out and play a piece perfectly. Then, the next night, I play it better." —Jean-Pierre Rampal, legendary flautist In this provocative, insightful book, nationally syndicated columnist Dale Dauten explores how the best bosses, employees, and suppliers think, learn, and communicate differently—and how this benefits both the organizations they work for and the individuals they work with. What does it take to be a workplace genius? Dauten, drawing from his experience with hundreds of "better than perfect" workers, explores the behaviors and different ways of thinking that make them shining stars—similar to the exceptional performers in music, sports, science, and other fields. He also reveals why they elevate everyone around them, and how we can find our inner genius to make a difference in our workplaces, and in the world.
