Getting the best from your team
Book Review - Competence and Commitment - getting the best from your team, by Lee Astridge and Caroline Britton.
(WIN one of four copies!)
Told in a story format, this book describes the types of people you’re likely to find in your team. The book then shows you how to understand them and how to maximise their performance through your management style using the competence/commitment model.
This book packs a punch - don’t let the brevity (only 66 pages, 12,000 words) fool you. Competence and Commitment is an easy and very worthwhile read and makes for perfect airport reading.
In a nutshell: Simple, powerful and extremely useful for anyone managing a team. This is a book I’ll be recommending to a friend who recently took on a new role as a team manager and who was sifting through my bookshelf looking for a book just like this.
