John Graci is a leadership speaker, author of 8 best-selling books, and trainer with more than 20 years of management experience in production, office, union and non-union environments. Graci’s straightforward and tell-it-like-it-is approach comes across as refreshing and riveting, and will have leaders on all levels of business grimacing in guilt knowing they might be practicing management without a license.

​

John’s debut book, The Buck Stops With You exposes today’s leaders who are quick to blame employees for having bad attitudes as opposed to looking in the mirror and asking what they could have done to cause the situation. Graci’s second book, doesn’t pull any punches when it comes to offering solutions to the question: Why Don’t Employees Perform as Expected? John’s third book, Leaders Are MADE, Not Born! was released in the summer of 2018.

 

Graci’s books and tell-it-like-it-is approach shines light on what your employees always wanted to tell you, but never do!

For the last 20+ years, I have read plenty of books on leadership, supervision and management. There are some real good ones out there! With that being said, often, when reading a book, it was filled with theory and inspirational stories and I would ask myself, "How do I apply this fluff to the real world?" This book has been intended to be easy reading and organized with short bursts of information which are straightforward and very simple things to do.

Delegation – do you know what it actually means? Delegation is one of those leadership skills that is widely misunderstood and creates enormous problems if done incorrectly. When a team leader has the right people on board who are loyal, hard-working, and well-compensated, delegation becomes a powerful tool when deployed effectively. Just how vital is delegation to the success of a leader? Think of a linchpin.
