Great management is difficult to see as it occurs. It's possible to see the
results of great management, but it's not easy to see how managers achieve
those results. Great management happens in one-on-one meetings and with other
managers---all in private. It's hard to learn management by example when you
can't see it.
You can learn to be a better manager---even a great manager---with this guide.
You'll follow along as Sam, a manager just brought on board, learns the ropes
and deals with his new team over the course of his first seven weeks on the
job. From scheduling and managing resources to helping team members grow and
prosper, you'll be there as Sam makes it happen. You'll find powerful tips
covering:
Delegating effectively
Using feedback and goal-setting
Developing influence
Handling one-on-one meetings
Coaching and mentoring
Deciding what work to do-and what not to do
...and more.
Full of tips and practical advice on the most important aspects of management,
this is one of those books that can make a lasting and immediate impact on your
career.
