About the Author

Kate Keenan is a Chartered Occupational Psychologist with degrees in affiliated subjects (B.Sc., M.Phil.) and a number of qualifications in others.

She founded Keenan Research, an industrial psychology consultancy, in 1978. The work of the consultancy is fundamentally concerned with helping people to achieve their potential and make a better job of their management.

By devising work programmes for companies she enables them to target and remedy their managerial problems - from personnel selection and individual assessment to team building and attitude surveys. She believes in giving priority to training the managers to institute their own programmes, so that their company resources are developed and expanded.

Having always believed in the maxim that if you want a good job doing you should do it yourself, Kate Keenan has finally realised that delegating is a powerful method by which others can be helped to do as good a job as she does (if not better). This relieves her of the necessity to do it all, at the same time as enabling her to do a great deal more than ever before.
