Unlock Your Full Management Potential to Empower Your Top Performers

About this book

Managing the Unmanageable empowers current and aspiring managers to unlock the full potential of their teams, by recognizing and embracing the unique qualities of top performers who thrive when given the freedom to explore beyond traditional boundaries.

At its core, Managing the Unmanageable advocates for a management style that treats individuals with utmost dignity, respect, and autonomy—an approach that not only fosters their personal growth but also cultivates unwavering loyalty. It offers a fresh perspective on effective management by addressing a pervasive problem faced by managers across industries: the challenge of harnessing the full potential of exceptional employees who resist being confined by rigid rules and limitations.

Mike Cecil distills the lessons learned throughout his extensive 42-year career in the construction industry, where he encountered a myriad of managers—both successful and unsuccessful. He provides relatable anecdotes, practical advice, and insightful strategies to equip management professionals with the tools they need to unleash the full potential of their teams. By embracing the principles outlined in Managing the Unmanageable, managers will be able to create an environment where top performers thrive, leading to increased productivity, employee satisfaction, and long-term success for both individuals and organizations.
