Summary:
"The inspiring and unlikely story of how one woman learned to lead - and how she ultimately succeeded, not despite her many mistakes, but because of them. How Kristen Hadeed built Student Maid, a cleaning company where people are happy, loyal, productive, and empowered, even while they're mopping floors and scrubbing toilets. How she went from being an almost comically inept leader to a sought-after CEO who teaches others how to lead. She launched Student Maid while attending college ten years ago. Since then, it has employed hundreds of students and is widely recognized for its industry-leading retention rate and its culture of trust and accountability. But Kristen and her company were no overnight sensation. In fact, they were almost nothing at all. Along the way, Kristen got it wrong almost as often as she got it right. Giving out hugs instead of feedback, fixing errors instead of enforcing accountability, and hosting parties instead of cultivating meaningful relationships were just a few of her many mistakes. But Kristen's willingness to admit and learn from those mistakes helped her give her people the chance to learn from their own screwups too. This story dismisses the idea that leaders and organizations should try to be perfect. It encourages people of all ages to go for it and learn to lead by acting, rather than waiting or thinking. Kristen encourages us to embrace our failures and proves that we'll be better leaders when we do. Businesswoman Kristen Hadeed lives in Gainesville, Florida"--Provided by publisher.
