The book is written in a short story format and thus was very easlily read and understood. I purchased 15 books for our department’s managers. I will be hosting a “lunch & learn” to review and discuss ideas. This is the perfect book for that type of book club.
Thanks,
Gary

This books proves one very important principle that we are told over and over by our flight attendant each time we travel: “Put on your OWN oxigen mask before you help others” The importance of knowing one’s management style is fundamental before we can successfuly manage others. This book also reminds us of the importance of situational self-control.

Blanchard’s Leadership and the One Minute Manager written in 1985 was an excellent, easy to understand book about Situational Leadership.
Self Leadership and The One Minute Manager is a “must read” if you are working in the year 2006. Here’s why…
Blanchard points out on page xiii of the introduction that it is not unusual for a manager to have 25 to 75 direct reports. Some of these direct reports he/she may never have met face to face.
This “fact of working life” makes it important for YOU to take responsibility for the application of the situational leadership model to YOUR life and career. Your supervisor or HR no longer has the time to be concerned with the YOUR career development.
As a executive coach I find many people in the work place are discouraged with the progress of their careers, but are not ready to accept the responsibility for their own career development.
This book will show you how!
