The CEO of one of the largest nonprofit residential addiction treatment centers explains how to be a true leader and succeed
Growing up on a pig farm, it seemed unlikely that Doug Tieman would reach his goal of becoming a CEO by the time he was 40, but he did. By applying the lessons that he shares in this book and by working hard, he succeeded. After 32 years of working in the addictions field, Tieman realized that lessons that apply to life, career achievement, and recovery aren't all that different from one another, but understanding and applying those lessons in order to be successful is where many people fail. Tieman explains that one of the critical issues many people face is an inability to conceptualize and take methodical steps toward actualizing career goals. In addition, the value of learning true leadership, whether you are a line-cook or a corporate executive, is paramount.
Tieman skillfully weaves examples and principles from his own life on the farm and in business to demonstrate this practical and personal path to achievement, bringing readers from all backgrounds and career stages to a new level of success and fulfillment. With these lessons and hard work, they will call you "boss."
