The One Minute Manager Builds High Performing Teams: New and Revised Edition

I was referred to the One Minute Manager series when I asked someone I considered an excellent manager if he could recommend some management resources. The One Minute Manager Builds High Performing Teams was my first introduction to the series.The book is written as a conversation between the One Minute Manager (a nameless, faceless character), a curious manager named Dan, and a human resource manager named Maria who brought up the question of how to manage teams versus individuals.The print is large and there are only a few paragraphs per page, making it quick and easy reading, especially for those who only have time to read a small segment at a time. The dialogues are occasionally dull and a bit pedantic, but the messages come through clearly. And these messages, how to diagnose the development stage a team is currently in and which management style is appropriate for each stage of development, are usual analysis tools for anyone leading a group. The messages from the book can also easily be identified and passed on to group members through a short presentation.A worthwhile book to look at for anyone wanting to improve team motivation, productivity and functioning.

Digestible read with immediate takeaways. Provides a structure (for new and seasoned managers) to help develop an effective and engaged team - where everyone has skin in the game and pulls the same direction.Have already implemented some of the strategies and has positively benefited the team.Recommend for new and seasons managers - as it has great ideas that can be implemented / appended no matter where the Mgr or team is at.

I am a huge fan of Kenneth Blanchard's work, One Minute Manager Series. He has produced yet another great example of being an effective leader through Situational Leadership. Team Building is the most efective way to achieve high performance but team members can impede their own progress. This book is very detailed in providing steps for anyone working with teams. With so many different ideas and personalities to consider, I feel more confident to create committees and recognize "team behavior" by being prepared and responding appropriately.

Great book, easy read lots of great concepts.

Perfect condition. I have been looking for this book to pass on it was so helpful in my nursing management.

Just what I wanted! Near perfect condition.

Ordered to help sales staff increase and to train upcoming managers

I had to order this book for a college text. The price was great, it was shipped fast, and the condition was better then I expected. The book itself is another in the OMM series and in this volume deals with building effective teams quickly. This is also applied to teaching in my college course. Very useful approach & solid tips.
