"During 2003 I was training and mentoring groups of managers in both the US and the UK. Our face-to-face sessions were infrequent, so I started writing a training manual to help bridge the gap. Each chapter covered one common or inescapable challenge that all managers will encounter, sooner or later. 

After six years of development the text grew into The Secret Laws of Management: 40 Essential Truths for Managers.

I present each law, explain it briefly and suggest ideas on the smart ways for a manager to act.  I don’t claim that my suggestions on what to do about each law will be universally appropriate.  You must use your own judgment in each situation.  However, I do assert that if you ignore the laws of management, you will find your job much harder than it need be, and you won’t achieve all that you could.

Being aware of these laws enables us to avoid many of the pitfalls that other managers fall into headlong.  The outcome is less personal strain, improved results, and effective relationships between team members.

Four ways to profit from
The Secret Laws of Management:

  1. Read as usual

  2. Dip in and out in any order.
    Each law is a short read with its own
    stand-alone message.

  3. Be your own coach and mentor.
    Read each law, one at a time.  Review your management practice.  How does this law apply to you and your team?  Can the suggestions help you to manage your team more effectively and improve performance?

  4. Solve management problems.
    Use the list of common management problems at the rear of this book to point towards the relevant laws that will help you diagnose likely causes and find practical solutions.

I hope you enjoy reading The Secret Laws of Management, but may I be a little bit cheeky and remind you of the obvious?  It’s not the reading that improves performance, but the action that follows."
