Product Information

With vital performance and career lessons and ideas for how to apply them, it is a must-read for managers at every level. The book also has great questions to use as a manager, and I've had some great discussions so far with a few I've tried. After reading the first third of FBATR, I feel as though managers do too much of this without actually considering the individual. What would surprise you is that you'll find many myths that you used to think it is right, but it is not from the findings of Gallup. I usually don't read management or self help books as I find them boring but this one read like a novel and I could relate to several instances and situations which I face everyday in corporate world.

These blinks explain on a practical level how managers can find the right employees for the right roles and keep them satisfied with their jobs. If you were to only read one book this year in hopes of improving your management style or if you're an employee that wants to mind read yo boss, but only if your boss has management skill, then this would be the one book I'd recommend. While the original content remains essentially unchanged, the 2016 re-release of First, Break All the Rules includes access to a product Gallup created to help managers and leaders turn employees' talents into great performance.By rethinking how raises and other forms of reward are structured, readers will learn that it is possible to keep an employee in a role where they are most talented. For instance, they will try to determine whether poor performance is caused by lack of teachable skills or knowledge. The fact that each person has his or her unique and unchangeable set of behaviors means that, for managers, this must be translated into management guidelines.

and what this book taught me was that your 'talent' could be that you hate waking up in the morning lol (I'm very talented at this) and a managers job is to align talent with career aspirations. First, break all rules" wraz z "The Effective Manager" tworzą bardzo dobry tandem i szybki kurs jak powinno się kierować ludźmi.Finding ways to address the content of these 12 questions is a great way to show your talent that you care.

The book is a result of observations based on 80,000 interviews with managers [3] as conducted by the Gallup Organization in the last 25 years. For one thing, satisfied employees are more engaged in their work, and because of their stronger commitment they greatly contribute to higher productivity.
