Recommendation

This leadership guide leaves the philosophizing aside and focuses on the mechanics of managerial efficacy. McKinsey & Company alum Shu Hattori lays out basic and best practices culled from his days at “the Firm.” His manual offers guidance for getting ahead, improving communication, increasing productivity and overdelivering in your personal and professional life. Each of the 47 principles seems simple by itself, but taken together these nuggets provide an excellent framework for growth. getAbstract recommends Shu’s something-for-everyone compendium as a fundamental addition to your leadership development library.

Take-Aways

  • Maintain a laser focus on what really matters, so every activity you take on adds value.
  • Having a clear vision of an end product enables you to work faster and more efficiently.
  • When you learn and boil down materials, extract the meaningful nugget of information and formulate a “30-second answer to everything.”
