This pragmatic, comprehensive book fills a gap as a complete A-Z guide to people management, helping managers along the most difficult of paths: leading, motivating and running a team of people.

This is an ideal book for managers who need quick but expert guidance on the people management problems they face on a daily basis. Making the transition to managing a team is daunting in itself but the problems don’t stop there; managing other people poses challenges at all levels. This book takes the form of a clinic, where a people manager asks an experienced management consultant how he should approach particular issues and problems. This unique question and answer format offers managers advice that is accessible, practical and based on the author’s many years’ management consulting experience, and can be read whole or dipped into as and when necessary.

Introduction; 1) Starting Out; 2) Team Issues; 3) Leadership; 4) Performance Management; 5) Organisational Skills for Managers; 6) Delegation and Coaching; 7) Stakeholders; 8) Communication Skills; 9) Change Management; 10) Overcoming Stress.
