Product Details
What Do the World's Greatest Managers Do Differently?
Despite their different styles and backgrounds, great managers don't hesitate to break virtually every rule held sacred by conventional wisdom.
They don't believe that, with enough training, people can achieve anything they set their minds to. They don't try to help people overcome their weaknesses. And yes, they even play favorites.
In this longtime management bestseller, Gallup presents the remarkable findings of its massive in-depth study of great managers. From managers at Fortune 500 companies to those at small, entrepreneurial firms, the best managers excel at turning each employee's talents into high performance.
Learn How to Measure Your Human Capital
Gallup's research produced the 12 simple statements that distinguish the strongest workgroups in a company from all the rest.
First, Break All the Rules is the first book to present this essential measuring stick and to prove the link between employee opinions and productivity, profit, customer satisfaction and the rate of turnover.
The insights from Gallup's study of great managers show you how you can:
- keep your best performers
- improve performance and profitability
- measure essential outcomes
Best of all, with vital performance and career lessons for managers at every level, First, Break All the Rules shows you how to apply them to your own situation.
First, Break All the Rules now includes access to the CliftonStrengths assessment.
