Management and Teams: A Beginners Guide

This book is for new and inexperienced managers who want to fastrack their management development and acumen. It is based on over 40 years of management development and team building experience across the corporate sector. Developing your management and team building skills is essential for every manager today because if you don’t quickly learn these skills your competitors will. The Chapter on Management is all about becoming a High-Performance Manager and is based on the newer progressive Transformational management style which companies are now increasingly moving too. This is replacing the older Traditional style that has gone unchanged for over 100 years and is viewed by today’s workforce as being unacceptable, stifling, and unwarranted. The Chapter on Teams is all about building your own High-Performance Team taking you step by step through the essential team attributes. This builds commercially robust teams that outperform ordinary teams in nearly everything they do.This book also views management and leadership as similarly defined, as concepts that are transposable and inseparable. Together, leading (visionary) and managing (task-orientation) form a framework of skills and behaviours that are necessary for managing and building great teams.
