Chapter 1 - Being a Manager

Is all about becoming a High-Performance Manager and is based on the newer progressive transformational management style that companies are now increasingly moving to. The transformational style replaces the older traditional style now unchanged for over 100 years, it is generally considered to be broken and is viewed by the new workforce as being unacceptable, stifling, and unwarranted.

Chapter 2 – Building your Team

Is all about building your own High-Performance Team taking you step by step through the essential team development attributes. This builds a commercially robust, self managing, flat team that can outperform ordinary teams in nearly everything they do.

Management

The authors view on management is that management and leadership are similarly defined, as concepts they are transposable and inseparable. Together, leading (visionary) and managing (task-orientation) form a framework of skills and behaviours that are necessary for managing and building great teams. It is this definition that the book is based upon.
