How To Not Be *THAT* Boss - CampHacker #137
You all know what kind of boss we’re talking about.
Marcus Buckingham says it best - “People leave managers, not companies”.
Do you want to keep your best staff members?
Do you want to have a strong culture built on trust and empathy?
Do you want your camp to truly feel like a community?
Then for all the bosses, managers and supervisors.
Be better.
Chris, Gabz and Joe are here to break down what makes a boss the type of boss that staff will work through adversity (like COVID-19!) or the ones staff will leave in the dust.
(Without using names) what was something a boss did that made them that boss for you? Let us know in the comments!
Tool of the Week – Make Yourself a Better Camp Director
Chris: Circadian Optics - Light Therapy
