About this title

Review

One of Prentice Hall's Institute of Management series of Smarter Solutions books, How to Lead a Winning Team promises to give you all the skills you need to lead and empower a high performance team. The Smarter Solutions series was designed as a one-stop shop for business people wanting to get ahead in their careers, covering the key areas in management skills and personal development. Each book successfully applies the same formula to its subject, combining well-presented ideas and information with examples, case studies, fast-track tips and checklists.

How to Lead a Winning Team is engaging and articulate, with material that goes beyond the realms of business, into sport and psychology, for its lessons. Morris, Willcocks and Knasel consider leadership as something that comes from within the organisation, not only from the top, overturning the traditional view of the charismatic hero at the helm, in favour of an honest assessment of how "real" managers inspire. This is not a CEO primer, therefore, but a thoughtful study of effective management at any level. Written by professionals and trainers with clear expertise, Smarter Solutions is a wonderful learning resource for the modern manager. --Iain Campbell
