Book Reviews of Leadership and the One Minute Manager: Increasing Effectiveness Through Situational Leadership

Book Review: Situationally Developmental Tool
Summary: 4 Stars

A very effective tool in leadership and management. Clearly defines several styles of leadership, as well as several levels of "competence" among employees. This makes it quite easy to understand Blanchard's point about needing to treat different people differenlty in order to get the best result out of them. I think that is the key point, is that you are working to maximize your return on each employee.
