Publisher's Notes
Recognizing that every manager must have a set of core beliefs, in this third installment of business pioneer Mark H. McCormack's remarkable new series the "inventor" of sports management shares the personal principles for success that he has developed after many years in the trenches. Whether it is working harder than everyone else; staying calm in a crisis; not interfering in a situation unless you can add value; showing people once, then letting them do it on their own; or being ruthless about some things, but not everything, McCormack sets forth advice that will help readers quickly develop a set of management principles that work for them. Once those principles are set in motion, McCormack details some of the finer points that managers must master as they ascend the corporate pyramid, such as why slower decisions are better than quick ones, how to resist organizational pressures that constantly tempt you to decide quickly, how to spot talent, and how to hire, nurture, and promote that talent so that it pays off for you rather than the competition.
