The simple truth is that most of the time, management fails to achieve its real goals. The Management Delusion helps you finally get management right.

What does this book cover?

The Management Delusion: What if we’re doing it all wrong? Advocates a revolutionary concept called ‘Minimum Effective Management’. It is designed to make your management efforts vastly more efficient, and to prevent the kind of management errors which simply get in your employees’ way.

It posits that:

• Traditional management techniques really aren’t working, and haven’t worked for decades – if they ever really did
• As many as 85% of employees all over the world are either poorly engaged with their work, or are actively disengaged – and their productivity shows it.
• 75% of the time, employees quit because of their manager(s), not because of their job.
