Publisher's Synopsis

Starting a new job always brings excitement, anticipation, and perhaps even a bit of apprehension. One thing is for sure, once you become the "new boss" you quickly discover that managing other people can be the most difficult task you face. Your new subordinates will have different personalities, and different ways of getting the job done. Some of them may have been former co-workers, and good personal friends. Many of them may not have the same desire you do to work hard day after day. Dealing with the many problems a new supervisor faces isn't easy - but help is available. Here's an instant-answer resource that takes the guesswork out of supervising other people and helps you master the problems and challenges you'll face as a new supervisor. It's packed with literally hundreds of business-tested techniques and strategies for successfully handling every area of your job - from dealing with problem people and managing time, to boosting productivity and improving your communication skills.
