In aha #2, Edmonds states that, “Great bosses create safe, respectful workplaces that enable top performance and deep gratification by team members, all at the same time.” Edmonds explains in his ahas that great bosses not only create positive work environments for their employees, but also actively maintain that atmosphere. But it is in aha #41 that Edmonds really drives home what a boss should make their number one priority: “Great bosses’ first job (caring for people) makes their second job (holding people accountable) MUCH easier. Trust and respect grows.”
