Managers who focus on the people below them miss the chance to manage up the chain of command. If they can manage their bosses, they can free themselves up to do the best job they can. You can do the same. That’s the practical and practiced message in this brief eBook from D. Michael Abrashoff, once the captain of the USS Benfold, who told his story in the bestselling book, It’s Your Ship.
