About this product

Product Information

Modern organizations are rife with well-intentioned managers who follow the tenets of mainstream work culture and yet perpetuate patterns of poor management - sapping morale, well-being, and the performance of individuals and organizations. In Good People, Bad Managers, author Samuel A. Culbert explains how to shift managers' mindsets and to encourage them to break from the culturally written "good management" scripts they enact - to conduct themselves more intelligently, other-sensibly, and, as opportunities arise, to contribute to the common good. Good People, Bad Managers teaches leaders what they gain from removing barriers to allowing employees their own voices, and how they, along with everyone in their company, can benefit from managers evolving.

Addresses a relevant, significant problem: management culture is rife with deception. Regardless of one's level within a firm, all managers make subjective decisions, protect their own turf (i.e., pursue departmental goals at the expense of corporate goals), and do not treat all employees fairly as they have biases. This book is strong, in a practical sense, in that real-world examples are explored and approaches for improving the culture are given. Additionally,soft management skills (communication and psychology) are promoted in this text. Undoubtedly, managers who are able to better understand how they make decisions and improve their communication with employees will make better managers., "Addresses a relevant, significant problem: management culture is rife with deception.
