Publisher's Synopsis
ò Encourage your team to suggest their own objectives - ò Prevent fires rather than fight them - ò Decide! YouÆll never have all the information you would like - - These, and another 107 æideasÆ, form the basis of John and Shirley PayneÆs entertaining book. Whether youÆre newly promoted or an old hand at managing, it will help you to improve your performance and avoid some of the pitfalls you may not even have been aware of. - - Written in a practical, no-nonsense style, the Guide focuses in turn on the eleven key skills of management, including setting objectives, decision making, time management, communication, motivating, delegating and running effective meetings. A questionnaire at the beginning enables you to identify those chapters that will give you the maximum benefit. Or read through the whole book - as the authors say, using their ideas canÆt guarantee success, but it will increase your chances.
