The Rise Of The Player Manager

The Rise Of The Player Manager

by Joy Palmer (Author), Philip Augar (Author)

Synopsis

All but ignored by management theory, more and more employees are being asked to combine management and production responsibilities. Millions of workers are trying to lead teams while maintaining their own performance, often without management training. The result too often is enormous stress, unnecessary workloads and feelings of helplessness. Player Manager sets out to explain how to manage a team while maintaining your edge as a producer. Using a blend of historical analysis, personal experience and detailed case studies, Augar and Palmer have produced a practical guide to the central dilemma in the lives of the most ambitious and capable people in the modern work place: the player managers.
