Download or read book The Dream Manager written by Matthew Kelly and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2007-08-21 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A business parable about how companies can achieve remarkable results by helping their employees fulfill their dreams Managing people is difficult. With disengagement and turnover on the rise, many managers are scratching their heads wondering what to do. It's not that we dont dream of being great managers, it's just that we havent found a practical and efficient way to do it. Until now . . . The fictional company in this remarkable book is grappling with real problems of high turnover and low morale -- so the managers begin to investigate what really drives the employees. What they discover is that the key to motivation isnt necessarily the promise of a bigger paycheck or title, but rather the fulfillment of crucial personal dreams. They also learned that people at every level need to be offered specific kinds of help and encouragement -- or our dreams will forever remain just dreams as we grow dissatisfied with our lives and jobs. Beginning with his important thought that a company can only become the-best-version-of-itself to the extent that its employees are becoming better-versions-of-themselves, Matthew Kelly explores the connection between the dreams we are chasing personally and the way we all engage at work. Tackling head-on the growing problem of employee disengagement, Kelly explores the dynamic collaboration that is unleashed when people work together to achieve company objectives and personal dreams. The power of The Dream Manager is that simply becoming aware of the concept will change the way you manage and relate to people instantly and forever. What's your dream?

Download or read book My First Time in Charge written by Daniele Matteucci and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is divided into two main areas: rational and emotional. I believe that a good manager must first of all master the rational part, but to become an excellent and complete manager, he or she cannot forget the emotional part of the job. Blending the rational and emotional parts will be a recipe for success and fulfillment. The book is a practical guide with intent to offer pragmatic tools and frameworks to new managers. It is the book I wished to have when I started my journey as a manager with business responsibilities. I wrote it based on my real life management experience. I took notes for about four years of the lessons I learned during my first field assignment. I struggled, but finally I have been successful. I wished during my beginnings to have a mentor to coach me and help me to speed up my learning curve. I wish this book can be the practical guide to help others reducing the stress and worries that inevitably happen when taking on a managerial role for the first time. I also wish to help new managers to deliver better and faster high performances.
