    Abstract: Delegating work often goes awry. The software doesn't work, the invitations aren't sent out on time, or nobody shows up to staff the trade show booth. Or the work is done on time, but at the expense of team member engagement. When a project fails or just plain doesn't match your expectations as team leader, it's usually your fault. This insightful report examines the best ways to delegate work so that you not only end up with successfully completed tasks, but also a team of cheerful people- including a cheerful you. Through interviews with more than two dozen management authorities-executives, managers, leadership coaches, advisors, and authors-author Esther Schindler takes you on a journey through the process, pitfalls, and rewards of delegating work to others. Adopt a managerial attitude: learn how to cede control and trust your team Understand empowerment: know what, how, and to whom to delegate tasks Assign tasks sensibly: delegate objectives and clarify expectations Check on a task's progress: learn how to provide communication and support Judge the results through a mentor's eyes: praise your team and cope with failure

    Abstract: So you're a manager, or at least you want to be, and you're looking for a good roadmap to help you prepare. If you want to be the kind of manager people really admire, this ebook is a good place to start. Instead of tactics and solutions, author Robert Hoekman, Jr. provides you with a belief system-an approach to solutions that you can use all the time, every time, with confidence. Along with observations from many of the best minds in leadership, Hoekman shares approaches that helped him become successful in management roles. You'll learn about essential practices that will make team members want to follow your lead, such as being collaborative, giving credit away, managing distraction, and creating opportunities for others. Be the same person as manager that you were when you aspired to become one-the hungry kind Instead of managing your people, clear a path to help them do great work Communicate well and frequently: listen, ask questions, clarify, restate, absorb, and contribute Understand how today's actions map to tomorrow's outcomes Work with people to establish and communicate direction, and support everyone's efforts to get there

    Abstract: Like any committed organization, your company wants to attract and keep loyal employees who are creatively productive and engaged with their work. And those workers want to be appreciated for the job they do. This report shows you how to align both goals, with guidelines for a powerful process that's often undervalued: one-on-one meetings between managers (or team leaders) and the people in their charge. Author Esther Schindler explains that one-on-one meetings can help managers break down barriers, give and receive useful and immediate feedback, and ultimately build team loyalty. With the best practices in this report, you can transform these meetings from an irritating waste of time into a valuable "special time" for both workers and managers. Learn why one-on-ones are important for developing trust, aligning tasks, and mentoring Conduct these meetings as a conversation-and don't be afraid to be personal Make the process work by scheduling recurring meetings and building in follow-up Get guidelines for what (and what not) to talk about during one-on-one meetings and for dealing with tricky situations and negative feedback Judge your success with a checklist for self-assessment Esther Schindler is a longtime tech industry journalist who's translated geek-talk into English since 1992. She loves to explain how technology can, indeed, improve the quality of life. Find her on Twitter at estherschindler. Bring chocolate.
