Synopsis

Being a hard working leader is hardwired into your personality. But is working hard working for you? Do you often hear that you work too hard? Do you rarely have an out of office message on your email? The author, a true hard worker herself and an experienced corporate coach, breaks down taboos about working hard and identifies four main achievement types. She offers tests, schemes and checklists which will enable you to discover which type you are and get an insight into your behaviour at work that will enable you to reach the top and stay there.

From the Back Cover

Does your sense of responsibility make you take on mountains of work?
Do people sometimes tell you that you are working (too) hard?
Do you find that as a leader you are working harder than everyone else?
Do you seldom use your 'out of office' message?

Did you answer 'yes' to at least two of these questions? If so, there is a good chance that you are a hard worker. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that, provided you stick to the rules and don’t overdo it. If you want to reach the 'top' and stay there, you need to understand why you work so hard.

You can't become a hard worker: you either are one or you aren't. Hard-working leaders need state of the art training, just like jet fighter pilots. Based on that comparison, this book offers a clear success formula for hard workers, their leaders, their coaches and HR. With this formula, you will achieve the desired results professionally and privately, both in the short and long term.

In Out of office, hard worker pur sang Sabine Tobback, breaks any taboos associated with working hard. She identifies four different kinds of hard workers. Using self-tests, targeted questioning, schedules and checklists, you will gain insight into each type and its associated behaviour.
