The One Minute Manager

Yesterday I read a management book - 'The One Minute Manager' written by Ken Blanchard and Spencer Johnson. I liked that book very much. It's practical. It includes some examples demonstrating how you can effectively handle the people under you. By the book definition, effective managers manage themselves and the people they work with so that both the organization and the people profit from their presence.

The metaphor, The One Minute Manager means it takes very little time for that manager to get big results from people and behind this success lie just three secrets :-

- One minute goals
- One minute praisings
- One minute reprimands

One should read this little book to know more about these secrets.
It is really good to know that the leaders of American and Japanese industry have made this book compulsory reading for all their managers.

Enjoy reading ...
