Product Description

Here is priceless advice from three famous experts: how managers can meet their own priorities, give back other people's monkeys, and let them solve their own problems.

5 out of 5 stars "It's tough to work for a nervous boss; especially if you are the one who's making your boss nervous."   June 6, 2008
Chad Russell Buckendahl (Thornton, CO United States)
Solving problems (or as Blanchard refers to them... monkeys) is something everyone must get better at throughout life. Regardless if you are in the field of business, medical, or even in parenting, solving problems is a big part of being successful every day. That's why I think this book is for everyone. I personally took away valuable knowledge on how to delegate properly and keep a team of people moving in the same direction. One of the great arts of management is delegation and the principles in this book are simply fantastic ideas that when applied, do work. This book cost me $12 and it's helped to make companies I've worked for millions. Pretty good value!

It's an easy read with great information that any manager can implement immediately. The step by step approach with anecdotal stories on how to apply each step were helpful.The One Minute Manager Meets the Monkey (One Minute Manager)


5 out of 5 stars Short, Simple, and Powerfully Effective   February 13, 2008
Leigh Robertson (California, USA)
by Paul Edward, author of Moving Forward: Turning Good Intentions Into Great Results by Discovering Yourself, Your Place, & Your Path.

Ken's book is required reading for all of my leadership students and clients who have trouble with taking on everyone else's problems.

Using conversational language, Ken gives the reader simple techniques for reuniting monkeys with their rightful owners.

A must read for everyone in leadership roles.



2 out of 5 stars one simple idea, stretched out   November 19, 2007

Don't let subordinates dump their problems/responsibilities on you. That's the ENTIRE book. Stretched out just long enough, to rook people out of money. VERY little, for the money.
