Secret Techniques of the Moral Manager 1/1/2008 7:54:22 AM
This book discusses the need to commit to living a moral, value-based life. Strict morals (honesty, integrity, character, etc.) allow a person to avoid the pitfalls that befall so many men and women. Strong moral values expand your influence while immorality restricts.
Real life examples explain how to handle difficult situations and build an effective, motivated workforce. Leaders will learn how to: unleash and tap the collective creative abilities of workers; move people to do more than they ever have; and move everyone as a group towards a common goal, while recognizing their individual achievements and values. Leaders will learn numerous techniques in dealing with people that he or she will utilize as they climb the corporate ladder.
Success takes failures, the acceptance of risk, and a climate conducive to innovation. Success takes looking at things from a different perspective. Throw out the assumptions, question your own reasoning and that of others, and dare to try drastically new ways.
Synopsis of “Secret Techniques of the Moral Manager”
How do you learn all the tricks of the trade involved in leadership without spending the years suffering the pains? Quite simply, you learn from those that took that very route. Thanks to their trials, errors, and accomplishments, you can avoid many of the barriers they encountered and propel yourself upwards much faster. When you run into problems, you will know how they handled a similar situation and how they fared. This allows you the advantage of insight. You accelerate your progress by learning from those that have the experience, characteristics, and attitude that successful leaders and winners of life have.
Successful executives at mid and high level positions learned the majority of what they know from their initial supervisory position. This book delves into the minds of many successful leaders at various levels, but particularly experience at the initial level which helps form your managing style. If you want to succeed as a leader and many other aspects of life as well, you need to learn the secrets used by other successful managers.
Effective managers know how to maximize the efforts of employees and the means available to them (equipment, processes, etc.). They maintain a long-term vision of the desired direction, while working through day-to-day operations.
The greatest common denominator of all great people is their commitment to living a moral, value-based life. Strict morals (honesty, integrity, character, etc.) allow a person to avoid the pitfalls that befall so many men and women. Successful people know that they pay thousands of times for doing immoral things; your conscience becomes occupied with guilt. Continued denial of wrongdoing furthers your erosion of character--others can see what you so desperately try to keep hidden and begin to question your character. Strong moral values expand your influence while immorality restricts.
All of us become the thoughts that we keep and reaffirm to ourselves. To be successful we must program our minds with positive thoughts. Along those lines, we must accept failures as a necessary requirement for success.
Organizations need one true objective so everyone is fully aware of what their purpose is. More than one objective is too many. Keep it simple and understandable. Success requires a core goal, but maximizes personal freedom as much as possible. Personal freedom allows employees to be creative, innovative, and feel valued. Informal communications should be the norm throughout your leaders and workers. Communication should be consistent and straightforward to avoid gossip and unnecessary distractions. An established focus allows the quickest, most efficient route to the goal you desire. This goal should require some stretching, yet be achievable.
What gets measured gets done. Show reports that compare achieved productivity to the target productivity. When giving praise, make it specific and private.
