Managing For Results
|
Perhaps the greatest leap in a manager’s career is the first one into management. You have to let go of the comfort of technical excellence and embrace the concept of succeeding through the work of others. These others are dependent on you for direction, coaching, discipline and energy. Their success is your success; and it is your job to ensure they do not fail.
