The One-Minute Manager, adapted from Blanchards classic book which sold more than a million copies, is a parable about a young man in search of world-class management skills. The authors message is so simple its brilliant: a "One-Minute Manager" achieves positive results with a minimum of time and effort by being communicative and consistent. Areas covered include goal-setting, motivating, training, praising and even reprimanding employees. Key points are effectively recapped by co-author Johnson at the end of the CD.
