About this listen

Best-selling author Richard Koch shows managers how to apply the 80/20 Principle to achieve exceptional results at work - without stress or long hours.

In his best-selling audiobook The 80/20 Principle, Richard Koch showed listeners how to put the 80/20 Principle - the idea that 80 percent of results come from just 20 percent of effort - into practice in their personal lives. Now in The 80/20 Manager, he demonstrates how to apply the principle to management. An 80/20 manager learns to focus only on the issues that really matter, achieving exceptional results, and feeling successful everyday while working less hard in fewer hours.

A large number of managers - especially in these difficult times - feel completely overwhelmed. Their inboxes are overflowing and they constantly struggle to finish their to-do lists, leaving little time for the things that really matter. The 80/20 Manager shows a new way to look at management - and at life - to enjoy work and build a successful and fulfilling career.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

It was okay

I got lost a few times when listening to this because to me, it seems like the author goes off on quite a few tangents. In my opinion, only the last 25 to 50% of the book was information I was looking for in regards to the 80/20 principal.

Great strategies for managers

Listened to it a couple times.

On the surface some of the ideas of will make you uncomfortable if you are a fan of command and control philosophies.

I will probably listen to it again.

Great resource for managers

Wish I had read this many years ago. Truly inspiring read and listen. Reading and listening to it at the same time made for a richer and more reflective experience.
