About the book
Management is like juggling: if you don't throw the balls right, your job will be more difficult than it needs to be, and you'll drop plenty.
For managers, this means that delegating right and setting the right culture is the key to being effective and avoid that their job becomes about solving emergencies all day.
In this book, Luca Dellanna draws from his experience leading large teams and consulting for large multinationals to explain the four principles and eight best practices that lead to more effective and less effortful management.
What's inside
- The 4 Principles of Operational Excellence
that determine whether your organization will operate smoothly or always react to the last problem, whether your subordinates respect you and each other or operate with defensiveness and distrust.
- The 8 Best Practices of Operational Excellence
that effective managers use on a weekly and monthly basis to ensure that the Principles are followed in practice every day, even when conditions are not optimal, even when they are not around.
- How to get top-management buy-in, a roadmap for an effective roll-out, and systems to sustain the change.
This book does not let you alone with the complex reality of implementing change in a big company where multiple projects and agendas are involved.
- And much more…
