About this listen

Imagine a world where personal and professional growth are combined, where improving your relationships and owning your strengths at work translate directly into the rest of your life.

Creating a company culture like that is not a dream. Through personal stories and real-life conversations, Jonathan Raymond takes you into the room with managers and employees where real culture change happens and shows you a new kind of employee mentoring where each person gets the real-time feedback, support, and clear boundaries we all need to get beyond the patterns that hold us back.

In this provocative and timely new book, Jonathan brings together what he has learned over a 20-year journey as an executive, an entrepreneur, a team leader, and a leadership trainer. Combining his experience as the CEO and CBO of EMyth, where he led the transformation of a global coaching brand with the lessons learned along his own personal growth journey, Jonathan walks us through a step-by-step approach that integrates the leading edges of both. You'll discover a way to lead your team that is both profoundly human and results-oriented at the same time.

Whether you're a CEO or business owner, an executive, a team leader, a consultant, or a coach, Good Authority will give you new ideas and inspiration you can put into practice. Most importantly, it will give you permission to be more of who you are at work than you ever thought possible.

Great tool for self awareness in leadership growth

This book was a refreshingly sober walk through the application of leadership principles listed in other books on the same subject.
Not too dry, not too frilly, not too bogged down with studies and data to be interesting, and not too reliant on personal anecdotal tangents to be useful in the reader’s own worklife.
A good solid instructional guide to begin working your own way down the path of embodying authority from within — not just leaning on a title.
Keeping this in my library to revisit in the future.

Refreshingly sober reference book

I enjoyed this audiobook but felt like it went by too fast. I'm going to have to re-listen to it again as I drifted off a few times while he was explaining different employees and their traits.

pretty good read

This book is insightful and a great read. Drawing on a plethora of experience and background experience, the author shares all we need to know really about using authority for good. Abuse of authority abounds, so this book is informative and refreshing! Lead smarter not harder!

Excellent book on leadership

I’m a business coach and read quite a bit. I read a lot and recommend very little. This is in my short list of books I strongly encourage my clients to read.

Great find

The book gave my an opportunity to reframe my approach of how I perceive I bring value. It also helped me think about how I've approached the team, which might just be the cause of my own overwhelm. Quick read with interesting stories and examples. I would recommend it. I enjoyed it and look forward to putting some ideas into practice.

Less superman more yoda!
