Description
Here is a sound and orderly approach to more effective management. In clear, easy- to-follow language, this book provides a complete understanding of the universal sequences which enable managers to perform better when creating or preventing change- the basic function of a manager's job.
This highly informative book discusses the purpose of management, describes the individual steps which the manager uses to initiate or control change, and analyzes the significant issues implicit in the creation or prevention of change.
Company survival and growth require that managers continually "breakthrough" into new levels of performance. This book clearly demonstrates that: 1) there is an unvarying sequence of events by which a manager breaks through into higher levels of performance; 2) there is a different but also un- varying sequence of events by which he maintains the resulting gains; and 3) the manager can greatly enhance his own and his company's growth by understanding these universal sequences.
In this book the author explains what you need to know in order to meet the ever- changing and ever-increasing demands made on you and your company. He defines what he means by continuous "breakthrough" in such chapters as:
โข Breakthrough and Control-A Contrast
โข Breakthrough-A Panoramic View
โข Breakthrough in Attitudes
โข Mobilizing for Breakthrough in Knowledge
โข Breakthrough in Performance-Action But more than just the author's "break- through" assertion is discussed. In other chapters, the author fully covers such basic yet complex concerns of managers as: Resistance to Change - Cultural PatternsISBN:0070331723
