Description
The Truth About Managing People offers real solutions for the make-or-break problems faced by every manager. Readers will discover: how to overcome the true obstacles to teamwork; why too much communication can be as dangerous as too little; how to improve hiring and employee evaluations; how to heal "layoff survivor sickness"; even how to learn charisma. This isn't someone's opinion; it's a definitive, evidence-based guide to effective management: a set of bedrock principles to rely on throughout an entire management career.
The Rules of Management: They're surprisingly easy to learn and live by. Now, Richard Templar's brought them all together in one place. Templar covers everything from setting realistic targets to holding effective meetings; finding the right people to inspiring loyalty. Learn when and how to let your people think they know more than you (even if they don't) -- and recognize when they really do! The first edition of The Rules of Management became a global phenomenon, topping bestseller charts around the word. This new, even better edition contains 10 brand new rules to take you further, faster.
In Wired to Care, top business strategist Dev Patnaik tells the story of how organizations of all kinds prosper when they tap into a power each of us already has: empathy, the ability to reach outside of ourselves and connect with other people. When people inside a company develop a shared sense of what's going on in the world, they see new opportunities faster than their competitors. They have the courage to take a risk on something new. And they have the gut-level certitude to stick with an idea that doesn't take off right away. People are "Wired to Care," and many of the world's best organizations are, too.
