Synopsis

Management is about getting things done. This is a hands-on book written by people who do the job and have learned the lessons 'at the coalface'. It hardly touches on management theory, it advocates no fads, it contains little management speak and very few 'long words'. "Succeeding as a Practice Management Team" is written not to look elegant on the shelf, but instead as a ready reference, a source of ideas, and an essential aid to good management. Managing a general practice is challenging; the range of skills and competencies that the team must embrace is wide. The practice manager will have the overview, but partners and many of the staff also have vital management roles to play. The experience manager will dip into this book at will, the less experienced will use it as a guide, and all team members will find it a valuable resource.
