Goodreads asked Hernani Alves:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Hernani Alves Early on in my career, my team was setting sales records, winning awards, and getting large bonus checks. However, I was told that no one enjoyed working with me; that I was a micromanager. This awarded me the worst nickname you can ever get as a leader (which I reveal in my book).

I overcame that horrible name by taking action and catching others doing things right. And most importantly, I stopped micromanaging. I eventually earned the Best Leader award from my team—my most cherished accolade. It’s the story of how I stopped managing and started leading, using Balanced Accountability (book) to improve every aspect of my team.
