MANAGING ON PURPOSE: A Framework for Guiding Success in the WorkplaceMANAGING ON PURPOSE is a concise yet comprehensive overview of what it means to be a manager. It is written for everyone who is charged with achieving results in an organization, especially results achieved through the efforts of other people. It contains both subject matter and questions designed to educate and train managers in the basic parameters or dimensions of their jobs.Individuals will profit from the book if they are:* Supervisors or managers who want to learn each of the dimensions of their jobs, from communicating with their people to understanding the laws and regulations that affect their organizations. * Supervisors or managers who need a way to prioritize competing demands on their time and energy.* Stakeholders who want to ensure that all managers and supervisors in their organizations are exposed to the same knowledge base, and who possess the skills and abilities needed to achieve organization goals.Given the intensity, uncertainty and scarcity of resources found in the modern workplace, management activity needs to be targeted, intentional, and purposeful. This is from the Foreword to MANAGING ON PURPOSE: "Within each of our respective workplaces, it should be clear to everyone what the working agenda is moment-to-moment, and what everyone's responsibilities are in terms of the items on the agenda. We need to manage on purpose."This book will help readers create their own management agendas, and carry them out in satisfying, purposeful ways.
