Supervisory training teaches you about a lot of things you should do, such as how to prepare a performance appraisal, conduct a meeting, divide up work, or manage your time. What it usually leaves out are all the things you shouldn't do-the subtle and not-so-subtle mistakes in managing people that could haunt you the rest of your career.
Now there's a comprehensive, instant-answer guide to avoiding over 100 of the most common mistakes made by managers that no business course ever told you about. This valuable career-enhancing guide details where the pitfalls lie, so you can avoid them more easily, as well as how to recover from a mistake quickly and prevent it from happening again.
You'll discover how to avoid such management blunders as:
* Not having clear objectives
* Delegating the wrong jobs
* Being defensive to criticism
* Ignoring office politics
* Taking on risky projects with little payoff
* Solving performance problems with new technology
* Getting caught up in the rumor mill
* Letting other managers steal away your staff
* And much more!
