The One Minute Manager is perfect for anybody who is just embarking on a career in management. It is a very short lesson in management, written in simple language in the form of a story about the perfect manager.
Do not let its size or lack of academic language fool you. This book is the distillate of powerful psychological and management principles, so simple and easy to remember that anybody can use them to manage effectively. I would recommend this book to anybody who cares about effective management and about their staff and colleagues. >>More Details |

This is okay - but if you've been a manager for some time, you will probably find this book a little bit boring and not really gain much from this read. Great for new manager's - would pass on junior managers.

To say this book accurately reflects the common delegation and mgmt pitfalls that I and most new managers fall into is an understatement.
I read this book at the weekend, and for the first time in weeks i'm actually enjoying being in work. A "MUST READ" for any manager who's feeling their quality life is being wrecked by too much work. This book may well just save my sanity :-) >>More Details |

This isn't your typical management book about motivating your workers. In this book you follow the main character trying to turn a factory around and saving it from being shut down. The book uses concepts that seem taken from Native American culture to convince the reader about sound management principles. You cannot help nodding in agreement as you experience how the squirrel, the badger and the goose are used as symbols for how work environments should be. This is an entertaining and enlightening read that you should finish in little time, but which will haunt you for longer.

Same story as most of the other best-selling One Minute Manager books - People can be managed like dogs or idiotic children. The approach works great if you're the Manager applying the BS but if you're forced to eat it (ie you're an employee / human resource), it can be very frustrating and mentally destabilizing. On a serious note, there's a sinister agenda running through these books, highly stacked in favor of 'managers'.
Great book for the skindeep, none-too-bright, busy executive wanting a quick-fix to inflict onto his stupid employees and / or a line of crap to spout to his upper levels! >>More Details |

Written in the now familiar 'One Minute Manager' parable style this book is a quick and easy read. It contains some good thought provoking commentary on the subject of customer service. As with other Blanchard titles this is a good book to use to spread the word in your organisation as it is compact and concise enough for anyone to read easily and quickly.
I use a lot of stories when training people as it helps the key messages to be absorbed easily - as is the case with this book. Simon Hazeldine Author of 'Bare Knuckle Customer Service', 'Bare Knuckle Selling' and 'Bare Knuckle Negotiating'. >>More Details |

If you read the first book and had a nagging feeling that it didn't really explain the full ins and outs of the one minute management concept (i.e. after agreeing the objectives, is the next step really just to wait and either shake their had or kick them in the ass?) Then this is the book for you as it talks much more about the subtle steps that make up the process (such as coaching and reviewing) that I feel were mentioned a little too briefly in the first book. In my opinion a good follow-up to the first book, but information that really should have been included as a second chapter in the first book. (A case of 'one book for the price of two' rather than the more traditional 'two books for the price of one'). But still well worth a read.

I bought this book for one reason, i am a last minute manager. Despite attempts by myself and others i have never been able to shake the habit. This book is helping. Whereas there is a lot here i already know it is the occasional flashes of inspiration, and more importantly discomfort, moments where i am no longer reading about bob but myself, that are most useul. Told in the recognisable parabal format, this book shows through the charicters how to change your behaviours by using guidelines which direct you to a decision rather than indecision. The key element here is that in dealing with a negative (how do i stop...) rather than the usual positive (how do i start...)the story becomes deeper as it follows the logical psychological journey ...

As soon as I saw the title I knew that I must buy it not only for myself but also for my son who is starting out on a career of as a coach. Nick isn't the greatest reader in the world but as soon as he saw the layout he said that's more like a book for me with the clear statements on most facing pages. It follows a tried and tested formula but this time he teams up with one of the greatest American Football Coaches Don Shula and they combine Coaching in sport with the lessons that are equally applicable to everyday life as well as the business world. As we drove back from the U/18's Rugby League match today I pointed out the page on how Don had after an operation at 2:30pm on a ruptured Achilles still made it to training at 10:am ...

I read the One Minute Manager series when they started 20 years ago, and didn't like the format because I couldn't relate to a Manager who was instantly available & accessible. I was accustomed to having to wait hours, and more typically days, to speak to my manager – by which time the matter had either gone away or I'd sorted it myself anyway. Then when I was in my 40's I found myself in the position that I could be a One-Minute Manager myself, and worklife became fun. So now I find myself re-reading the One-Minute Manager series with a new perspective on worklife. Now, why did they write this one on "Apology" – did the concept begin before or after the latest round of scandals in US business? Either way, it is trying to set a ... Read More: >>More Details |
