Most managers fail. Some 70 percent of employees say they are dissatisfied with their line manager. Disliking your boss is the number one reason why people choose to quit.

But why should we expect anything different when most new managers are given no formal training when they are promoted? Becoming a manager isn't a progression; it's a move into an entirely new job. Managing People is a practical manual for any first-time manager or established supervisor who wants to succeed in their role. It provides:

-Strategies to activate employees' motivation
-Tips on how to set goals and expectations
-Guidance on providing effective feedback
-Insight on building a high-performance culture

The book condenses Simon Birkenhead's decades of experience working as a CEO and people leader into an actionable guide. His practical framework will enable you to grasp exactly what's required to avoid the experiential missteps others often make and become a truly great manager.
