Summary
Details

Stop dreading management. Start leading with confidence, clarity, and heart.

Most managers are promoted without the tools they need to succeed. The result? Burnout, team conflict, and workplaces full of frustration instead of innovation. Better Boss Blueprint changes that.

Drawing from neuroscience, leadership research, and real-world coaching, Dr. Kate Vawter reveals the Five Hats of Human-Centered Management, a practical framework to help you balance being a mentor, coach, supervisor, friend, and leader without losing yourself (or your team's trust) along the way.

Inside, you'll discover how to:

Build trust that lasts by creating psychological safety and respect. Navigate big emotions at work-your own and your team's-with confidence and compassion. Lead with clarity so your team knows what matters most and how to deliver. Shift from conflict to collaboration using tools grounded in emotional intelligence. Thrive as a manager by wearing the right hat at the right time.

Whether you're a first-time supervisor or a seasoned manager navigating high-stakes challenges, this book gives you the blueprint to lead with confidence while putting people first.

If you want to reduce conflict, increase productivity, and create a team culture people love to be part of, Better Boss Blueprint is your guide.

It's time to stop guessing at management and start becoming the boss your team deserves.
