When the future involves great uncertainty… about what services the politicians expect to be provided, about funding, and about the employment prospects for managers and staff… this manual’s 52 concise and questioning reflections on management issues that can arise anywhere succinctly bring them to life.
Sharing, studying and discussing them will help managers respond successfully, by developing greater flexibility to:
- become comfortable and skilled at developing their management skills on the job
- recognise that on the job is the best place to learn what their organisation needs, as what is right for one organisation at a particular time may be different at another time or in another organisation
- develop the critical thinking skills that will help them meet this need for flexibility
- understand how their role as a leader is critical to helping those they manage to cope with uncertainty and respond constructively
- deal with issues that may be exacerbated during anxiety about uncertainty, such as poor performance, inappropriate behaviour, or poor attendance.
Wherever you work, in these times of uncertainty and tight finances, this manual takes the view that the best possible management is more essential than ever to making your organisation effective. For use in individual study, group sessions, supervision and mentoring, the empowering and adaptable material it contains can be used to:
- support and develop all managers in your organisation, not just a lucky few
- help them gain confidence and skills as part of their daily work
- play a part in creating a cost-effective management development programme that is expressly tailored to your organisation’s needs.
