Recommendation

Mikil Taylor’s management manual for beginners offers first-time managers an easy-to-follow, actionable, common-sense blueprint for becoming effective and proficient. Taylor leverages his experience as a young manager – his mistakes and the lessons he learned – to provide first-timers with the fundamental grounding they need to develop themselves and their teams. However, as Taylor cautions, simply knowing this information is not sufficient; he advises readers that they must be ready and willing to put these ideas into action.

Take-Aways

  • You must love the people you manage.
  • When you build a team, you’re responsible for its procedures, work processes and culture.
  • Inheriting a team can be tough for new managers.
