The 27 Challenges Managers Face: Step-By-Step Solutions to (Nearly) All of Your Management Problems de Bruce Tulgan

The 27 Challenges Managers Face: Step-By-Step Solutions to (Nearly) All of Your Management Problems

Autor Bruce Tulgan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 sep 2014

Problema fundamentală pe care o rezolvă această lucrare este gestionarea pe „pilot automat”, o capcană în care cad majoritatea liderilor care intervin doar atunci când situațiile devin critice. Putem afirma că The 27 Challenges Managers Face nu este un tratat teoretic, ci un manual de intervenție rapidă pentru fracturile de comunicare din cadrul echipelor. Ne-a atras atenția modul în care Bruce Tulgan reușește să clasifice haosul cotidian în 27 de scenarii specifice, precum angajatul talentat dar arogant sau conflictele dintre colegi care refuză să colaboreze. Pe linia practică a lucrării The Manager's Survival Guide de Morey Stettner, dar cu focus pe rigoarea conversațiilor structurate, volumul demonstrează că majoritatea eșecurilor manageriale provin din lipsa unor dialoguri clare despre responsabilitate. Apreciem abordarea autorului care, spre deosebire de viziunea din Managing Generation X unde se concentra pe diferențe demografice, aici revine la fundamentele universale ale conducerii. Dacă în It's Okay to Be the Boss pleda pentru reangajarea managerului în rolul de lider, în lucrarea de față oferă instrumentele exacte pentru a face acest lucru. Cititorul va învăța cum să adapteze fiecare interacțiune pentru a corecta atitudini negative, a reduce fricțiunile și a preveni propriul burnout, transformând managementul dintr-o serie de reacții la crize într-un proces proactiv și predictibil. Structura este concepută pentru consultare rapidă, oferind soluții pas cu pas care pot fi aplicate imediat după lectură.

Descriere scurtă

For more than twenty years, management expert Bruce Tulgan has been asking, "What are the most difficult challenges you face when it comes to managing people?" Regardless of industry or job title, managers cite the same core issues--27 recurring challenges: the superstar whom the manager is afraid of losing, the slacker whom the manager cannot figure out how to motivate, the one with an attitude problem, and the two who cannot get along, to name just a few. It turns out that when things are going wrong in a management relationship, the common denominator is almost always unstructured, low substance, hit-or-miss communication. The real problem is that most managers are "managing on autopilot" without even realizing it--until something goes wrong. And if you are managing on autopilot, then something almost always does. The 27 Challenges Managers Face shows exactly how to break the vicious cycle and gain control of management relationships. No matter what the issue, Tulgan shows that the fundamentals are all you need. The very best managers hold ongoing one-on-one conversations that make expectations clear, track performance, offer feedback, and hold people accountable. For every workplace problem--even the most awkward and difficult--The 27 Challenges Managers Face shows how to tailor conversations to solve situations familiar to every manager. Tulgan offers clear approaches for turning around bad attitudes, reducing friction and conflict, improving low performers, retaining top performers, and even addressing your own personal burnout. The 27 Challenges Managers Face is an indispensable resource for managers at all levels, one anyone managing anyone will want to keep on hand. One challenge at a time, you'll see how the most effective managers use the fundamentals of management to proactively resolve (nearly) any problem a manager could face.
