Sunday Bloody Book Review 6 –
“The One Minute Manager” by Ken Blanchard, Ph.D & Spencer Johnson
This book is not about becoming a leader or a manager in one minute; instead, it is about how a manager can achieve big results in very little time.
The authors, Ken Blanchard and Spencer Johnson talk about the three basic secrets that a one minute manager should follow: One minute Goals, Praising and Reprimand. The authors also stresses on the fact that ‘people’ are the most important resource in any industry.
Written in the form of a story, the book meets its purpose of putting across the basic motives of a manager in very simple but powerful words. What Kenneth Blanchard and Spencer Johnson has written has already become a management masterpiece with the book being made a compulsory reading in many industries in the US and Japan.
This book is your magic mantra to what can be achieved in ONE MINUTE !
