Do you believe people are either born leaders or not?
I did so for many years, avoiding leadership roles and limiting my career until I started researching the topic and discovered what good management could look like. I’ve discovered that it is not some mysterious intuition that a few of us have. Effective management is reproducible and teachable!
This guide delves into real-world scenarios, offering timeless, actionable insights to navigate common managerial hurdles:
• Performance management: hiring, 1:1s, feedback, development plan, firing
• Influence: communication with DiSC, conflict resolution, motivation, stakeholders
• Team culture: psychological safety, interviewing, meeting etiquette, engagement
• Goals: OKRs, metrics, quarterly plan, project management, crises
• Self-management: resume, personal brand, impostor syndrome, time management
• Navigating the organization: business acumen, team building, mentorship
Each chapter presents a relatable short scenario and analysis of the demonstrated ineffectiveness. It is followed by practical solutions and expert advice based not on personal anecdotes but on the aggregation of decades of research and experimentation conducted by leading consultants and researchers in various countries and cultures.
