Managing People: What's Personality Got To Do With It?

Success in life is significantly dependent upon our ability to manage -- on the job, in governmental and educational institutions, and in our personal lives. We need to understand what has to be accomplished, communicate with those who are suppose to get it done, and achieve a desired result through their efforts. While the focus of this book is on management interactions in the working world based on personality colours, the principles and processes it presents are equally applicable in any situation.

This work by best-selling author Carol Ritberger will not only help you understand why people consistently and predictably do the things they do, but will also make you aware of the challenges and limitations of your own traits. You'll learn how to utilise the knowledge and understanding of personality differences to supervise, influence, and motivate your subordinates, peers, and associates. Overall, it will bring colour to your life as a manager!
