How to Manage
29 Nov 06

Many managers are smart (IQ). A lot are pretty good with people (EQ). But we have all met nice, clever people - they don’t necessarily make successful managers.

Managers who get things done, lead the way and get to the top have another key skill. According to Jo Owen, author of How to Manage, that skill is PQ (political quotient), the ability to understand and excel at the politics of work.

In How to Manage, Owen outlines IQ, EQ & PQ the three dimensions that make a great manager. He also shows managers what they have to do, and how they have to do it, in order to be successful.

Jo’s ideas and practical advice for managers are based on years of experience in a range of environments. He has interviewed over 1,000 managers about how they operate in the business world. He has also studied remote tribes around the planet to see how they organise, lead and manage themselves to survive in their world, where failure can mean death.

How to Manage will cut through the babble of management theory to focus on the critical skills and interventions managers need to be really good at what they do, make things happen, reach the top, and stay there.
