The Basic Management Series

A series of seven programs

1. Can I manage? – This is an ideal program for new and soon-to-be managers where they will learn what it means and what it takes to be a good manager.

2. Plan to get what you want – Deciding what you want and making the commitment to get it are the hard parts.  Getting it is easy with this six simple steps process.  What do you want?

3. Get organized?  I am organized! – There are actually only four steps to being organized.  Disorganized people spend too much time trying to make it more complicated.  It isn’t!

4. Someone is always in control – You don’t have to be in control but you never want to be out of control.  Learn the difference and when to choose to let someone else have control and why.

5. What was I saying? – When talking to an employee, your spouse or your kids it is what they hear that counts.  Be a good communicator.  Be heard saying what you think you said.  Learn how.

6. Make every decision a good decision – Making good decisions doesn’t mean you’re never wrong.  Learn to make good decisions and what to do when they are not so good.

7. Do it yourself only as a last resort – Delegation means letting go and it is the hardest thing a manager or parent has to do.  Learn to handle your own reluctance to delegation.
