Jeff Lyon
Middle management is hard, and if you’re a middle manager, you already know that and you may be searching for all the help you can get to become more effective and successful in that role... in other words, to become an Exceptional Middle Manager. Are you striving to develop your management skills, to become exceptional at building high performing teams, developing strategies and setting goals, managing and coaching the people who report to you, managing vendors and suppliers, managing programs and projects, conducting presentations to senior executives, all while advancing your own career? If so, this is the book for you. By focusing each chapter on a specific business challenge, Jeff gives you the confidence to know exactly what to do and when to do it (rather than delivering clever theories, models and checklists that don’t seem to apply in your day-to-day reality). As your mentor and corporate trail guide, Jeff will teach you: How to think smarter... as you deal with the challenging circumstances that all middle managers face today How to build high-performance teams... in the midst of corporate downsizing and The Great Resignation How to advance your career in today’s workplace... while landing positions that are both rewarding and personally fulfilling.
