Improving Management Effectiveness

The fact of the matter is…it takes very specialized skills to enjoy a successful career in management. Those skills include the ability to:

Manage your Boss, your Peers, your Coworkers and your Subordinates
Quickly Assess the Talent of your Team
- Then have the courage to make the necessary changes
Recruit, Hire, Train, Motivate and Retain a High Performing Team
Establish a Consistent Management Process
- Then inspect what you expect
“Coach” Team Members
- So team members reach their full potential
Clearly Communicate your Message
Acknowledge and Manage Change
Effectively Manage Time

This is the bottom line…managers will only be as successful as their weakest team member so they must continually invest in their managerial skill development and the skill development of their team!

Testimonial

Thank you, once again, for your energetic and interactive presentation at the NACM’s Affiliate Managers meeting earlier this year. Your topic, “Selling/Managing in a Down Economy” was extremely timely and packed with useful information! We had 25 Affiliate Managers in attendance and the feedback we received was overwhelmingly positive. As a matter of fact your presentation received a 4.8 rating on a 1 to 5 scale with “5” representing valuable and a “1” representing not valuable.

The tools, processes and concepts you introduced during your presentation were unique and pragmatic for the audience. Especially useful were your Readiness Grid, GAP Analysis and “SNAP” Shots. I also believe that your insights and recommendations for interviewing, generating referrals and up-selling were very well received.

It is my strong belief that if the Affiliate Managers use selected Boyens Group^® tools and processes they will not only survive in 2009 but they will actually thrive in 2009!
