Managing People
Doesn't Have to
Be So Hard
There are simple, effective,
and proven tools and techniques
which make it easier
Which you can learn
Everything is hard before it is easy.
What if the people you manage…
- Were consistently motivated to do their best?
- Were truly team players, supporting one another?
- Consistently sought – and achieved – stretch goals?
- Saw you as someone who brought out their best?
- Even arrived at meetings on time, eager to be there, ready to contribute?
Your job would be easier, right?
Managing becomes easier once you take a coincidental collection of people who happen to report to the same boss and shape them into a high performing team.
I've been exploring how to do just that for three decades.
Not as an academic. It’s been hands-on, rolling up my sleeves with managers at all levels, from team leaders to front-line supervisors, mid-level managers to CEOs, in over 300 organizations – public and private, large and small.
I’ve studied everything from how leaders create a compelling vision to how they sweat the small stuff, from how they make tough decisions to how they handle a difficult conversation, from how they inspire to what makes them perspire.
My mission is to learn all I can and share it with as many as I could.
There are four ways I do that – seminars and workshops, one-on-one coaching, by publishing seven books (with more to come), and by curating a blog, The Leadership Almanac.
