3 Key Lessons We Can Learn From the One Minute Manager

 

This book is basically a story of a young man who is in search of good managing techniques. He finds 3 types of managers in his journey- 

  1.  

  2. 1) The ‘tough’ manager, who primarily focused on results and not on the people. This manager’s superiors considered him a good manager but the people didn’t like him. They did get good results but at the cost of the people, who suffered. They called themselves ‘realistic’ or ‘profit-minded’ and sometimes even ‘hard-nosed’.

They didn’t get good results, but the organization’s employees stayed loyal to the organization. These managers called themselves ‘supportive’ or ‘considerate’ and sometimes even ‘humanistic’.
