SynopsisBeing a super-successful manager requires the finesse of a politician, the relationship skills of a psychologist, and the public speaking gifts of an actor, and all before lunch every working day. Managing people, like managing companies, means motivating, evaluating, communicating, resolving, presenting, and leading. The Unofficial Guide to Power Managing contains all the secrets and inside scoop that managers need to rev up their employees and their businesses. Here's where managers aiming for the top find no-nonsense tips on * Helping others to motivate themselves -- and what to do when empowerment fails * Why the best salesperson shouldn't be the sales manager * Negotiating successfully without resorting to weapons * Leadership style -- there's no perfect one, except for despots * Winning strategies -- and why most fail, even though the tactics succeed, Being a super-successful manager requires the finesse of a politician, the relationship skills of a psychologist, and the public speaking gifts of an actor, and all before lunch every working day. Managing people, like managing companies, means motivating, evaluating, communicating, resolving, presenting, and leading., The inside scoop for when you want more than the official line! Great managers are born, not made. In the past few years, too many management guides have unnecessarily bewildered and intimidated novice and veteran managers alike with the message that good management is some exotic combination of Freudian analytics and God-given charisma. But if you're a manager, even a new one, you know better. That's why you don't want murky psychobabble and esoteric theories in a management guide. All you want is a smart, straightforward, hands-on helper based on common sense, human nature, and solid management experience. You want the inside scoop. The Unofficial Guide to Power Managing is designed to give savvy managers like you a foolproof appraisal of everything from how to resolve day-to-day management stumpers to getting the best work out of even the least-motivated people on your team. In this book you'll get unbiased recommendations that are not influenced by any company, product, or organization. The Unofficial Guide to Power Managing is intensively inspected by The Unofficial Panel of Experts: Sara Jane Radin is the founder of Performance Advantage Systems, a corporate consulting firm; Alan Menikoff, MSW, MBA is a management consultant and university lecturer; and Robert Melstein is a producer at Entrepreneurs Only.
