Be the boss people want to work for.

Being a manager is no easy task. You must measure and track your team members' performance toward goals and objectives while also providing opportunities for growth and development. You have to be empathetic to your team's needs and concerns while also maintaining your authority. How do you navigate these tensions? People, Performance, and Succeeding as a Manager is filled with practical advice from HBR experts who can help you answer these and other questions like:

● How do I earn the trust of my team?

● When and how should I deliver constructive feedback?

● What's the best way to motivate my employees?

● How can I take care of myself so I don't burn out?

This book will help you figure out what kind of manager you want to be so that you can feel comfortable in your role, encourage the success of your people, and grow in your own career.
