The Crash Course in Managing People is an easy way to improve your management skills fast. But it is far from a dry traditional course, as the authors say: ‘be prepared to learn, but also be prepared to have fun’. When you begin to look at the nature of management a number of things become obvious. First is the importance of communication – two-way flows of information are at the heart of management – and second is the need to distinguish between two very different management styles. These two styles are usually referred to as leadership and management. Although this course is titled Crash Course in Managing People, in fact it concentrates on leadership. Alongside pure leadership, you will see themes developing around motivation, coaching and interviewing. Other parts of the course concentrate on developing you as an individual. After exploring the key elements that make for effective management, the course itself consists of a programme of 150 exercises and techniques to help you to develop your managerial skills. As with the companion books Crash Course in Creativity and Crash Course in Personal Development, targeted reading ensures that the practical exercises are backed up with expert knowledge. This dynamic personal development programme is split into 30 units, each designed to be completed in your spare time in one week. Under pressure to get results? A whole unit can be fitted in within a day. The final section provides a refresher that pulls together key learning points, ideas for further reading, and detailed tables that will help you to select the right techniques to use in specific situations. Contains exercises from Instant Leadership, Instant Motivation and Instant Interviewing and Instant Coaching, arranged into a structured course with a reading programme to back up the material, plus online links to expand your knowledge.
