""Oskhar Pineda is the kind of leader every business needs. He gets it: success isn't just about the bottom line--it's about empowering the people around you to shine."" --Mel Robbins, New York Times bestselling author, host of The Mel Robbins Podcast ""Thinking Outside the Boss is a profound reminder that leadership is not about commanding from the top but fostering a culture of trust, vulnerability, and mission-driven teamwork. With decades of success in the construction industry, Pineda demonstrates how prioritizing people over profits creates organizations where employees thrive, productivity soars, and businesses achieve sustainable success. This book is an essential read for anyone looking to redefine leadership and build workplaces where everyone, from employees to customers, benefits."" --Dr. Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50 #1 executive coach, New York Times bestselling author of The Earned Life, Triggers, and What Got You Here Won't Get You There ""The formula for directing a high-achieving organization is not that difficult even if the steps to implement it can be. Oskhar Pineda simplifies both: build a community where your people are invested in their work and care about each other. Productivity improves, profits rise, and everyone is being the best version of themselves. Thinking Outside the Boss is a brilliant reminder to entrepreneurs and other leaders to do everyone a favor and get out of their own way."" --Josh Linkner, New York Times bestselling author, five-time tech entrepreneur, venture capital investor ""Too often, people in charge forget that leading an organization is first and foremost a people game. Take care of your employees, they'll take care of your customers, and your customers will take care of your business. Everybody wins. Oskhar's been grinding for thirty years with phenomenal results and his life is testament to this truth. Read Thinking Outside the Boss and become inspired to do the same."" --Ryan Estis, author, keynote speaker, and founding partner, ImpactEleven ""What sets Thinking Outside the Boss apart is its authenticity. Oskhar's journey and experiences are woven into every chapter, making his insights not just theoretical but deeply personal and actionable. Oskhar's wisdom, humility, and passion for leadership shine through every page. This book doesn't just teach you to think differently--it challenges you to lead differently. It has left a profound impact on me, and I'm confident it will do the same for you."" --Sam Thevanayagam, president and CEO at Parts Life, Inc., DeVal Lifecycle Support, and LC Engineers, Inc. ""Oskhar Pineda has spent decades as the boss, and he knows what many in charge aren't willing to admit: leadership should not be a top-down structure. Organizations don't excel when team members rely on the person at the top to handle the tough stuff that inevitably hits the fan; they excel when leaders mentor, share, and empower. Oskhar is a prime example of radical humility in action, and the principles in this book serve as a guide for leaders at any stage of their careers to embrace."" --Urs Koenig, former UN peacekeeper, founder of the Radical Humility Leadership Institute, bestselling author of Radical Humility: Be a Badass Leader and a Good Human
