Management Book (Paperback)

The Management Book picks out the top issues you are likely to face on a daily basis as a manager. It shows you how to maximise your own performance and that of your team in each of these areas, so that you deliver the outstanding results you want.

For every challenge, the book gives you:
* Key objectives for managers
* Common issues faced in achieving these objectives
* A streamlined overview of the issue and what it means
* Pointers on when to focus on this issue
* A results-focused checklist of action points

Clearly structured, easy to use, with an honest view of what management really involves and what it takes to get it right, you’ll find yourself referring back to The Management Book again and again.

'An excellent and comprehensive roadmap for succeeding as a manager, refreshingly grounded in real-life approaches that work. Some people are lucky enough to have a talented manager and mentor that demonstrates how to lead; for those who don't, and even those who do, the effective manager described in this book is worthy of emulation.'
