Many Are Called But Few Can Manage: How to Succeed in Management Where Most People Fail was born out of Doug's 35+ years in business and seeing how most managers fail at the most important aspect of their jobs.
Virtually everyone has worked for a manager that seemed like they were from The Twilight Zone. And when each of us move into management ourselves there's a good chance we may become just like them. Little is said about it. Less is taught about it. But the fact is that most people fail in the most important part of management: leadership. If you want people to follow, you have to lead. It doesn't matter what level of management you're at. It doesn't matter how long you've held your position. If doesn't matter what your title is. The fact is that unless you lead, people aren't willingly going to follow. And that means you're going to fail. But you can succeed. You can be the manager that truly learns to lead and gets results like few others. Whether you're a high level executive, a mid-level manager, or a lower-level supervisor, regardless of how long you've been in management you need to learn how to be an effective manager. Develop the skills laid out in this book and you can lead like the best of them!
This is the man who has lived it, done it, and succeeded repeatedly at it. He's walked in your shoes and continually succeeded in business. Whether it's the three businesses he started, built and sold by age 25, his decades in management positions all the way up to CEO in small companies and Fortune 500 corporations, or his abilities as a business management consultant today, Doug Johnson's years of experience and training give him the knowledge to help businesses thrive.
If you only have one chance to learn about effective management, this is the man who can show you how to do it. Buy this book today and make it a cornerstone of your business library.
