Management gets a bad rap. You don't normally find social media posts of people professing "everyone can be a manager" and lauding their virtues. We save that stuff for the real heroes: the leaders and the doers. But what if we've gotten it wrong? What if we forgot something crucial? What if we've lost the ability to understand that management is awesome?

In Manage Your Gaps: Reclaiming the Awesomeness of Management, author Matt Ley explores the three places most organizations get management wrong and describes how to bridge the gaps. In these pages you'll learn:
