The Rules of Management
A definitive code for managerial success
Would you like to be one of those managers who glides effortlessly onwards and upwards through the system, the politics, the people problems, the impossible targets and the work overload?
Would you like to always say the right thing, do the right thing and know how to handle every situation?
And would you like to do all this without breaking much of a sweat or seeming to put in excess effort?
Then you need The Rules of Management. These golden rules cover what you say and what you do (and what you are seen to be doing). They show how you inspire your team to perform (and what you do when it doesn't). They underpin your successful behaviours and actions.
Your life will be easier. Your successes will be greater. And when you are headhunted or promoted (again) nobody will be surprised. Least of all you.
Others can be good. You¿ll be better.

Templar has done it again!,

This review is from: The Rules of Management: A Definitive Code for Managerial Success (Paperback)
After writing my review of Sir Templar's other book "The Rules of Work", I scoured the Net looking for this one. Unfortunately, it hadn't been released in the U.S. at that time. I stumbled upon it and immediately snatched it up!
Once more, Templar has laid down the rules of workplace conduct and strategy in a concise, direct, and easy-to-digest manner that stresses points simply while never insulting the reader. All of the ideas in this book have been published in other books by other writers, but this book culls it all together in one very portable resource which easily makes this one of the highest cost:value ratios out there! I might sound like a zealot, but try and you'll understand why I'm so enthusiastic about Templar's books!

Unbelievably good,

This review is from: The Rules of Management: A Definitive Code for Managerial Success (Paperback)
I only got this a week ago and thought it would make a reasonable read. I read it in one sitting - couldn't put it down. It is utterly fantastic. I began to put the Rules of Management into play first thing next day at work and what a difference. This is like magic. It is a miracle book. I know he, the author, says you shouldn't talk about this book and keep it secret but it is so wonderful that I can't help it. This is dynamite and every manager should have a copy and read it every day. This book is going to be such a best seller. If this isn't in the top lists within a month I'll eat my hat.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A slick list of rules for ruling at the office,
This review is from: The Rules of Management: A Definitive Code for Managerial Success (Paperback)
New or struggling managers will enjoy this practical, easy-to-read book of management tips, but experienced managers should take a look, too. Richard Templar writes in a "straight-from-the-cuff" style (no dry textbook terminology or dusty case studies here). He packs his manual with great, even if a bit obvious, lists of advice. We recommend this breezy, practical rulebook. To be a better manager, read it and ask yourself if you are still following the best practices. If you know what to do, are you doing it? If you don't know what to do, start reading.
