Barner has distilled the problems to six basic challenges: (1) how to respond quickly to demands from both senior management and customers; (2) how to manage stress and burnout in yourself and your team members; (3) how to focus efforts on truly critical issues; (4) how to motivate your work team and yourself to the highest performance possible; (5) how to make the most of available staff; and (6) how to use positive politics to forge alliances with other managers and departments. 
520 8 |a The author provides an arsenal of weapons to meet each challenge, including warning signs to watch for, dozens of specific strategies and tactics, examples from real-life situations, exercises to learn from, and illustrations for immediate application. The book also includes a ready-to-use trainer's guide so that the book's principles can be taught to other managers throughout your organization. Recognizing these six critical challenges - and learning how to attack them efficiently and confidently - will yield you great benefits. You will be able to deal proactively with trouble before it becomes overwhelming; set and achieve high, but realistic, goals; create a more committed and productive team; avoid no-win, wasteful activities; and enhance your career by achieving success despite enormous obstacles.
