Publisher's Summary

The antidote to mediocre management: learn it and become a better boss.

Management is easy, but the corporate claptrap does get in the way. The organizational rituals you must endure do nothing for your business's success. SMART goals are not smart; the annual round of target setting and budgeting is a management power game, and employee performance management is for fools. – If it is such a great idea, why don't you try it at home? Tell your partner they are "below standard" and highlight their "development opportunities". Will this improve their performance?

You don't need an Executive MBA to be a captain of industry. Nor do you need to climb on the bandwagon of the next big thing. Management by Objectives, Best Practice Benchmarking and the Tao of Transformational Leadership have all been . . . and gone (though you might need some Artificial Intelligence to sift through all that Big Data).

There are easier ways to create flourishing workplaces.

James Lawther spent a third of a century in corporate Britain. He was taken in by leadership gurus, seduced by technology, and fleeced by management consultants. But he learned how to build a thriving organization along the way. There is no secret sauce, and like all good things, it is simple when you know how.

Buy this book and rediscover the obvious. Your customers, employees (and bosses) will love you for it.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
