Perfect Management: Your Guidebook to Managerial Success

By David Shelby Kirk

Management courses don't teach you what you learn here in david shelby kirk's latest book. Drawing on his 50+ years of experience in technology management, the book delves into vital topics for management success that provide the reader with the equivalent of years of experience in being effective in a management position. A person may spend years acquiring a degree in management and be competent in figuring profit and loss, investments, motivation, project management, and more, yet still fail as a manager without this grasp of the fundamentals. Some of the topics in the book include: - You and where you fit - Writing your own job description and why you should do it - Problems with the open door policy - Hiring as an art form - Dealing with office parties and their problems - Delegating effectively - Terminating employees and the lessons to learn - Performance reviews and merit pay - Meetings and managing them - The real way to build teams - Mission statements and why you need one Kirk emphasizes this is not a book of perfectionism, but a striving for excellence in day-to-day activities and involvement with subordinates and peers. Topics that may seem obvious are treated with a fresh insight that will challenge the reader's views with new perspectives.
