A Commonsense Approach to Dealing with People (Paperback)

Even without the word "manager" in your title, you manage people every day of your life. You manage expectations at work and at home with your family, friends, and business associates. Author Terry "T. J." Jenkins has been supervising employees for decades, and he has also excelled at managing his personal affairs. In this step-by-step guidebook, he shares the lessons he's learned from climbing the corporate ladder and in his daily life. Success starts with commonsense approaches that few people take when working with team members. You will learn - how to acquire the right tools to manage people and events; - when it makes sense to make a lateral move in order to meet your ultimate objectives; - why it's so important to keep your promises; - how to communicate better with others. You'll also find practical strategies on dealing with stress, hiring the right people, and achieving goals. Forget about the technical manuals and complicated theories that promise to lead you to success. Instead, improve your relationship with the people you manage at work and elsewhere with A Commonsense Approach to Dealing with People.
