ENCORE: "The First-Time Manager" Review & Riff

The Introspective Leader Podcast

*THIS IS AN ENCORE PRESENTATION FROM 2022*
In the first episode of “The Essentials of Management” series, Rachel and Stuart’s discussion builds off of the major themes of the book, The First-Time Manager, 7th Edition, by Loren B. Belker, Jim McCormick, and Gary S. Topchik.

Key Moments:

• Stuart explains why he has been recommending The First-Time Manager for 20 years

• Rachel discusses how she found the book to be a good “one-stop shop” for managers at all levels of experience

• Rachel and Stuart discuss the notion of “choosing one’s management style”

• They also discuss the fine-line between being transparent and revealing information that a team may not be ready to receive

• The grapevine is real and managers must learn how to tap into it and, prudently, use it

• Stuart once again takes off on a tangent about the importance of empowerment
