I first started reading this book back in 2022 and I’ve been meaning to review it, but I just keep picking it back up to read sections again, sharing it with colleagues and adding it to our Entrepreneurship collection.
It’s a small book and the information contained within perfectly condensed to make it easy to read, easy to dive into when needed and easy to have on hand as a guide.
The basics of management are covered, but I don’t think just new managers should read this. It’s a good reminder for any manager.
Topics covered include coaching and mentoring, trust, communication, team building, delegation, remote leadership and reducing turnover.
The publishers provided an advanced readers copy of this book for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.

Audiobook*** I really liked this book. I would recommend it to first time managers/team leaders although even those with years of experience could use this 101 to Team management tool. I really appreciate those real time feedbacks for problematic employees, you can use it in your work as in these days almost everything that you say to your subordinate can be used against you.
