Klappentext
In any job, there will come a time when you are asked to lead other people. But while people are often well-trained in the skill set of their particular profession, few people are ever taught how to lead. As such, those first steps into leadership can seem daunting--what do you actually do? What do you need to know? How do you actually lead?
Broken down into eight simple lessons, this book aims to convey the basics in a way that is clear, concise, relevant and practical. To enhance the practical nature of the text, each of the seven chapters is followed by a series of key points--designed to act as summaries as well as incitements to positive action.

· The Second Lesson: Effective planning
· The Third Lesson: Briefing
· The Fourth Lesson: Controlling
· The Fifth Lesson: Motivating
· The Sixth Lesson: Organizing
· The Seventh Lesson: Evaluating
· The Eighth Lesson: Leading by example
Aimed at those who, regardless of industry or business sector, are about take their first steps on the leadership path, or who are at an early stage in their career and realize that leadership responsibilities lie ahead of them, How to Lead Others is the essential handbook to one of the most important and challenging aspects of professional life.
