How Managers Make Things Happen
About this book
How can a manager control business situations to make them work for, rather than against him?
Dropping the "soft approach to human relations," the author of this book, first published in 1961, strikes out for compelling leadership. He teaches managers how to make things happen and get things done. He reveals methods not usually discussed in "how to" books, and seldom taught in the schools of business.
Dr. Odiorne's ideas have been called "fresh and striking," and his concepts of the executive as a manager of situations have been labeled "valid and provocative."
His incidents, as depicted herein, are carbon copies of those actually existing in business today. And it has been said that Odiorne accurately molds the type of manager "I would like to work for."
Gain fuller cooperation, sharpen training, and generate greater productivity with these compelling tactics that spark subordinates to action and get things done.
