Practical, concise, and easy to understand, The New Manager's Survival Manual breaks down the job of being a manager into its component skills, helps you identify areas you need to work on, and shows you how to acquire the skills to deal with any situation you may encounter. Through instructive stories, dialogues, and examples, the Manual helps build your skills in structuring work; selecting, guiding, correcting, and motivating workers; supporting their efforts; delegating authority and responsibility; and communicating effectively. This new edition expands its coverage of "self-managing teams" with the latest ideas on developing successful teams and understanding what types of teams work best in the new organizational environments of the 1990s. The final chapters introduce you to the concept of "Phase Two Management", those higher-level functions that are of the greatest benefit to your boss and your organization. Using the skills maximization model, The New Manager's Survival Manual strengthens you in the various skill areas through periodic "Stretch-Meters", self-tests that help you accurately evaluate your mastery of a particular skill, and "ASAP" sections that prescribe specific actions you can take to develop key managerial abilities. Packed with solid, practical advice, The New Manager's Survival Manual will put you on the road to successful management: Your employees will be productive, your boss will be happy, and you will again be promotable.
