Facilitative Leadership: Managing Performance Without Controlling People

by Steve Reilly

This book is a clearly written thesis on two different approaches to managing the performance of your people. The most common approach, "autocratic behaviorism" is attempting to control your people's behavior through authority. The alternative is "facilitative leadership" which focuses on helping your people become responsible for their decisions.

There were some really great nuggets which were about 20% of the book. Though the repetitious nature of the book helped ingrain the lesson, it could have been half as long. I read the 1996 copy. If I could I would have rated it 3 1/2 stars.
