The one minute manager meets the monkey - ken blanchard

The author tells managers not to take on problems if the problems dont belong to them.

He tells them how to give back these monkeys, thus increasing production and reducing stress.

One simple idea can set you free: Dont take on a problem if it isnt yours! One of the most liberating books in the extraordinary One Minute Manager Library teaches managers an unforgettable lesson: how to have time to do what they want and need to do.

The authors tell why managers who accept every problem given them by their staffs become hopeless bottlenecks.

With a vivid, humorous, and too familiar scenario they show a manager loaded down by all the monkeys that have jumped from their rightful owners onto his back.

Then step by step they show how managers can free themselves from doing everyone elses job and ensure that every problem is handled by the proper staff person.

By using Onckens Four Rules of Monkey Management managers will learn to become effective supervisors of time, energy, and talent -- especially their own.

If you have ever wondered why you are in the office on the weekends and your staff is on the golf course, The One Minute Manager Meets the Monkey is for you.

Its priceless!.
