PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

This book is a safe and encouraging space for those who have stepped into a managerial role for the first time and need guidance and support on their way to becoming a trusted leader. Becoming a manager means a radical change in your job. The "what" and "how" of your work drastically changes: your objectives, performance indicators, time management, level of responsibility, problems that you face, scale of your results...all alter for good.

This book offers a concise yet comprehensive way of finding your own answers to all the pressing questions that one can face when becoming a manager. Using a coaching approach to interact with the reader, exercises, points for reflection, tips and real-life stories, it will help you develop your vision, a clear actionable plan and, most importantly, fully enjoy your new role of leading a team.

The 'Work Smarter' series provides shortcuts, tips and life-hacks for the development of essential business skills. The books bring together accomplished industry experts who have learned their trades at the coalface. They teach the skills ambitious businesspeople need in order to tip the playing field in their favour. It is the pirate equivalent of business advice; the antidote to conventional wisdom; 'smarter' practice over 'best practice'.
