Soundview to Publish Summary of Be the Boss Everyone Wants to Work For by William Gentry

PHILADELPHIA - Nov. 30, 2016 - PRLog -- You've been promoted to leadership, but ironically, as a new leader, you can't rely on most of the things that got you that promotion in the first place. New leaders must do something more substantial and more different from anything they've done before. William Gentry says this is the time to "flip your script." You need to flip your mental script from "me" to "we" and help those you lead to succeed. Gentry coaches new leaders to flip their script in six key areas: mindset, skill set, relationships, do-it-all attitude, perspective and focus. More than a series of best practices, Be the Boss Everyone Wants to Work For is a guide to internalizing a leader's perspective.

William A. (Bill) Gentry is currently a senior research associate at the Center for Creative Leadership and an adjunct assistant professor in the leadership studies doctoral program at North Carolina A&T State University. He graduated summa cum laude from Emory University and received his MS and PhD in applied psychology (with a concentration in industrial-organizational psychology) from the University of Georgia. He has published (or has work forthcoming) in the Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Vocational Behavior, Personnel Psychology, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, Leadership Quarterly, and Journal of Leadership Studies.
