Inside this book

Based on in-depth interviews with more than 80,000 managers at all levels (and in companies of all sizes), the Gallup Organization’s Buckingham and Coffman reveal in this summary what great managers do differently from ordinary managers to coax a world-class performance out of their workers. Great managers, write the authors, routinely break all the rules. They take the conventional wisdom about human nature and managing people and turn it upside down.
In this summary, you will learn which conventional wisdom to ignore. First, you will find a simple list of twelve questions that will help you assess whether your workplace is the kind of place that will attract and keep the best employees. You will then learn the four keys for unlocking the potential of each and every one of your employees. The first key is to select employees based on talent rather than experience or intelligence. This summary will help you learn what talent is and why you can’t create it from scratch.
The second key is to evaluate performance based on desired outcomes rather than direct control over the way a worker performs his or her job. You will learn how to define outcomes so performance can be measured and tracked. The third key to great management is to reject the conventional wisdom that people can be fixed. Focus on strength, the authors urge, not on weaknesses. You will learn how to manage around weaknesses.
