The Type B Manager: Leading Successfully in a Type A World

By Victor Lipman

Book Overview

In The Type B Manager, Victor Lipman offers a unique lens through which to view the challenging problems of management. While management has long been considered the realm of Type A individuals - hard-driving, competitive high achievers - all too often these high-intensity traits aren't effective when it comes to motivating your employees. Many characteristics of Type B individuals - being more relaxed, less competitive, more reflective, slower to anger - can be considered 'people skills' that better influence motivation and productivity.
