Three Powerful Secrets June 30, 2008
I just reread this great little primer on management and found it just as helpful as I did fifteen years ago. While its concepts are simple, they are also quite effective IF managers (including teachers, parents, and front-line supervisors) would implement them correctly. The three secrets of one-minute goal setting, one-minute praisings,and one-minute reprimands are based on sound behavioral principles and are bound to work as long as certain guidelines are met. For instance, goals should be realistic and specific, praisings should be sincere and immediate, and reprimands should end with a bit of encouragement. I love the idea of managers walking around trying to catch people doing things right. What a refreshing idea!
Read the book and apply the principles in your home, office, or factory. While the three guidelines won't solve every human relations problem, they offer sound, practical advice that will lay the foundation for effectiveness.

do you want a summary of this book?
Stupid kid: "Hey Mr. Manager, how about you teach me some managing stuff to manage people"
Manager:"you want me to teach you some managing stuff to manage people with"?
Stupid kid: "yeah i want you to teach me some managing stuff, to manage people with"
Manager: "allright, ill teach you some managing stuff to manage people with"
Stupid kid: "you mean to tell me you'd teach me some managing stuff to manage people with"?
Manager: "i dont like repeating stuff, ill show you some managing stuff to manage people with"
*repeat thought out the whole book
if you are in idiot and you think books like rich dad poor dad are good books, then prepare for a heart warming story
if not, dont waste your time like i did, this bs could have been written in a greeting card
Great read for new managers May 7, 2008
I bought this book for my husband and he found it very useful. He's already implementing these ideas at work with some very positive feedback. He gives this 4 out of 5 rather than 5 out 5 for it's slightly patronising prose.
