Narrado por: Mark Horstman

A management book written by managers for front-line managers, The Effective Manager, 2nd Edition, is a concise, practical, and incisive take on what to do and say to get the best results possible from your co-located or remotely distributed team. The book's concrete advice will improve your relationships with your team members, increase your chances of being promoted, and generate trust amongst those you lead.

You'll learn why managing remote teams is so much harder than managing one in a single location and how to meet that challenge head-on. You'll also discover how to introduce your ideas to your team, counter their concerns and pushback, and ensure your instructions are followed.

In the place of vague bromides about being "impactful" or "candid," you'll get hands-on guidance on how to behave in the situations that managers find themselves in on a daily basis. The authors also offer data and evidence-driven advice that's been proven to work in the real world over the last thirty years; ground-level, real-world tips on getting the best work out of your team without burning them out; and four critical manager behaviors that build success: Know your people, talk about performance, ask for more, and push work down.

good and useful

worth the time, but i don't want to write at least 15 words for review though

Practicality of techniques for effective management

I really appreciate the additional focus on remote work and the honesty about the effectiveness between remote and on-premises with stats. This book is written with techniques on affecting employee behavior in order to produce results and retain quality directs. This is not your normal management book which speaks in platitudes with little real direction and guidance. Unlike many management books I have read which I do not speak to others about, this book is one I would buy for my directs even if they are not currently a manager.

Effective and actionable guidance. Perfect for those new to management

15+ years of weekly podcasts edited and clarified for listening in a single sitting. I've been a fan of the podcast and I recognize most of the advice from the podcasts. But it was spread out over all of their MT trinity episodes. This volume has the advice condensed and focused to hold a new manager's hand as they roll out the Trinity.

Same book

Same book, should have save my money for something else . First book was great. Thank you

The guide to being a toxic manager (that people leave)

Let me save you reading this book. managers are evaluated on results and retention but the way to do it is clearly not a great way. The author main ideas are for results extact the most out of your reports and for retention dont let people be remote.
Let me tell you one thing as Individual contributors people are not stupid and would not like to work with you willingly if you follow ideas in this book
