People are the most valuable asset of any company, but as author Jeremy Ball writes in The Art of Tea Bag Management, many firms make the mistake of seeing employees as assets instead of people. In this insightful new leadership guide, Jeremy explains how to value each team member's individual contributions and create an atmosphere that promotes efficiency, creativity, and ambition.

Jeremy uses a cup of tea as a metaphor for creating the perfect team. The cup is management's area of responsibility, the water is the company culture, and the tea bag is your essential leadership style. Without all three components working in harmony, the tea will be weak.

Jeremy grew up under apartheid in South Africa and developed a keen understanding of the need for diversity and positive team dynamics in the workplace. His leadership strategies are inspired by the philosophy of Ubuntu, which was espoused by Nelson Mandela and emphasizes treating others with kindness and altruism. By adopting this simple principle, you will stop focusing on encouraging your team members to be good employees and start encouraging them to be good people. In so doing, you can create a strong, resilient foundation for your business.
