Performance Management: Is it Time to Coach, Counsel or Terminate (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780983344285)

Pat Brill has over 20 years of experience working with managers which has given her a unique perspective on what works for a manager's success. Combining her management, leadership and coaching experience, Pat has broken down the key success strategies she's collected into a new series of up-to-the-minute guides for the professional manager. She believes that a successful business and productive team requires flexible, nimble and practical, not theoretical, interpersonal management strategies. While there has been a lot of information available to team leaders and managers on business systems, what Pat finds is that managers often feel unsupported and unskilled in the "human quotient" elements-communication, connection and other invaluable skills necessary for building a productive and proactive professional relationship. Nowhere are these interpersonal elements more important than between a manager and his or her team! In this new series of "virtual coaching" guides Pat takes the successful methods she's employed in her one-on-one coaching and consulting work and puts it in the palm of your hand! Here you will find the re-energizing and refocusing strategies you need whether you are leading a startup, an established corporate team, or anything in between.
