Did you ever have a great boss? Everyone should have one, but not enough people do. If you're a boss, or hope to become one, or have a less-than-great boss, then this is the book that could change your career--and your life.

In times like these, being a great boss can be harder than ever. If you want surprising and useful advice on how to handle the tough stuff--from having to fire a long-time employee to being a new boss with a demoralized team--the stories, observations, and advice contained in this gem of a book will set your feet in the right direction. And if you just want advice on living up to the legend who preceded you in the job, or even ways to emulate someone who was a great boss to you, Jeffrey Fox has gathered anecdotes from some of the mightiest and most respected bosses in America. The bestselling author who brought you How to Become CEO and How to Become a Rainmaker knows the territory about which he speaks.

Fox is the master of the counterintuitive angle. For every boss who has implied "I know what's best, that's why I'm the boss," Fox counsels, "Listen to Phonies, Fools, and Frauds" and "Don't Check Expense Accounts." His stories from bosses who have cared equally for employees' lives and the bottom line will inspire you to see that profit counts, but so do camaraderie, motivation, and a great place to work.

In a time of considerable corporate downsizing, it's more important than ever for bosses to surround themselves with motivated employees. Jeffrey Fox's How to Become a Great Boss will have a place on the shelves of top brass everywhere who want to remain leaders of their pack.

Dogs love them!
Color: Blue
I had to by one for each one of my dogs after purchasing the first one for the new puppy. All three, pink, red, and blue are the same size fyi. Dogs love them and they seem very durable for my heavy chewers.

incredible
Color: #03 Champagne
Simply wonderful! The fragrance is delicate and sophisticated, leaving the skin gently scented all day long. The glitter has an elegant shine and is not exaggerated, perfect for parties or special events. The application is super practical, spreads easily and the fixation is great. I recommend it to those who want a touch of glamour and brightness with an incredible smell!

90’s me be jealous 🥹
Color: #04 Bronze
26 years later, here I am- the sparkling unicorn of an adult the late 90’s child version of myself DREAMED of while coating ✨EVERYTHING✨ in glitter and shimmer. Only now, I have an Amazon card and the impulse control of a toddler, so I sparkle now 🤩. Am I 40 years old? Absolutely. Did my kindergarteners at school ask why I sparkle now? Absolutely. Did my mid-life crisis self lie to them, and say because I’m a magical unicorn? Absolutely. Did they believe me? ABSOLUTELY. 10/10 recommend, but only if you too want to live your best magical unicorn life! Technical notes- the smell is light and lovely. It dries without a “feel” so I forget I even have it on. The shimmer is noticeable, but not like I rolled in glitter. I’m enjoying the bronze glimmer color, but I’m sure will be back soon for more. I could easily spray more if I wanted to be more blatant with my attention seeking. I will absolutely be using this stuff from now until I’m in my grave with no shame! Fantastic all around 🤌
