Synopsis

THE TOP SELLING FIRST-TIME MANAGER SERIES HAS SOLD OVER 500,000 COPIES

Every manager must be prepared to face tough situations that management training never warned them about. This is the go-to resource for handling everything from a disruption in workflow to managing a hostile workplace, and even handling an international pandemic.

As a manager, you are prepared to face any challenge when it comes to the work at hand, but you may not be ready to overcome a hostile work environment, a catastrophic disruption in workflow, or any other of a multitude to challenges that can arise, seemingly from nowhere.

Paul Falcone, author of 101 Tough Conversations to Have with Employees and HR and leadership expert will help you master unforeseen challenges in the workplace, including:

• Individual Crises: Whether issuing disciplinary actions, losing a key member of the team, delivering bad news to your boss, or even being set up for pretaliation, there are steps you can take to overcome these challenges.
• Departmental or Team Crises: Inheriting a new team can be tough and, even worse, handling internal disputes can cause a serious disruption in workflow and impact a team’s energy.
• Company Crises: When the company faces challenges, they often pass that stress to managers. As a manager, you must maintain a positive environment and it’s not as difficult as you think.
• Social and Global Crises: You must master the skills of listening, stress management, and knowing how to navigate your own emotions during any global crisis.

This timely follow-up to the go-to manual for management training, The First-Time Manager, will teach you how to face tough situations you never expected to face.
