Leadership Skills - For Managers, Supervisors and Team Leaders (Paperback): Louis E. Tagliaferri Leadership Skills - For Managers, Supervisors and Team Leaders (Paperback)
Louis E. Tagliaferri
R291 Discovery Miles 2 910 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The purpose of Leadership Skills: For Managers, Supervisors and Team Leaders is to provide organizational leaders and candidates for these positions with the fundamental knowledge and skill development that they need to succeed as leaders in today's business environment. The book focuses on the nature of the role that most managers and supervisors are required to fulfill as they strive to accomplish things through others, which is the essence of leadership. It recognizes that the many managers and supervisors in business, industry, government and other organizational sectors have been appointed to their current positions mainly because of their technical skill - not because of their leadership ability and that while some people are "born" leaders, the majority are not. Therefore, if a person is to succeed as a manager, supervisor or other organizational leader, he or she must acquire leadership skills through training and experience, which is exactly what the author provides the reader in this highly informative and instructive book. The book consists of twelve chapters that focus on essential leadership skills including: Understanding The Role and Responsibility of a Leader, How to Build a Winning Team, How to Manage Diversity, How to Improve Communication Skills, How to Plan, Organize and Manage Time Effectively, How to Solve Problems and much more. Each chapter clearly sets forth chapter learning objectives followed by instructional text highlighted by a series of Key Points that emphasize crucial leadership learning issues. At the end of each chapter the reader is presented with a Self-Awareness Test that will provide feedback regarding how well he or she understands the leadership issues and principles presented. Concluding each chapter is a structured format by which the reader can prepare a Personal Developmental Plan that will help him or her gain introspection about developmental needs related to the topic of the chapter and then prepare developmental goals and a set of strategies by which skill development can be accomplished. A final and most valuable feature of the book is the Leadership Skills Test that will be found in Appendix C. This 40 paired-item test measures the extent that the respondent's leadership beliefs and behaviors are congruent with those that research has found are characteristic of the most successful leaders. The concepts and principles presented in this book are based on extensive research as well as on the author's personal experience as a business executive and management consultant that spans over 45 years.

16 Developmental Tests - For Managers & Supervisors (Paperback): Louis E. Tagliaferri 16 Developmental Tests - For Managers & Supervisors (Paperback)
Louis E. Tagliaferri
R396 Discovery Miles 3 960 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This is a compendium of sixteen developmental instruments designed to help HRD and Training Professionals and other Executives assess the interaction skills of managers, supervisors and candidates for those positions. Their purpose is to help HRD and Training Professionals and other Executives understand the training and development needs of employees. The instruments in this compendium can be used singly or as part of a series. For example, a facilitator might choose to administer only the Supervisory Skills Test to a group of current or prospective supervisors, team leaders or lead persons in order to obtain diagnostic information that will help the facilitator design a supervisory training course. Alternatively, The Supervisory Skills Test can be paired with a leadership instrument such as the Leadership Skills Test in order to obtain a broader diagnostic perspective. Similarly, the five team assessments can be used either singly or in combination in a structured team building training course. Each instrument consists of an Administration Manual or Facilitator's Guide and a Participant's Booklet. The former includes a synopsis of the instrument and facilitation guidelines and scoring information. The Participant's Booklet is essentially a "test booklet." Purchase of this book includes a limited license for the purchaser to reproduce and use any or all of the material contained herein for educational and developmental purposes.

Louis E. Tagliaferri
R372 Discovery Miles 3 720 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Bellaria di Rivergaro is the story about a family that lived in a beautiful valley in northwest Italy and the country inn they built in 1901 that was their home. Emilio and Evangelina meet in a small hamlet between the towns of Rivergaro and Bobbio along the Trebbia River. They fall in love, marry and raise a family of eight children in the place they name Bellaria di Rivergaro (Bellaria). Within a few years, their two oldest children, Luigi and Elisa, immigrate to America where they confront the challenges of assimilating into a different culture. Meanwhile, life at Bellaria continues through the turbulent events leading up to and through World War I, while sadly tragedy strikes Elisa and her family in the immigrant section of New York City. Later, during the fascist period of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, the family finds it must deal with economic hardship, terror and danger. However, they are saved from harm by an unsolicited memento from a notorious personage in the fascist government. The family at Bellaria confronts even greater danger during World War II when family members face possible execution because occupying German forces suspect they are engaged in partisan activities. In America, Luigi achieves success in industrial construction, but feels a deep sense of guilt for never fulfilling his promise to return to Bellaria to see his family. The years pass with the economic fortunes of Bellaria rising and falling. Emilio and Evangelina pass on leaving Bellaria to their children. In 1980, after almost eighty years, Bellaria is sold to acquaintances of the family. However, in America, the grandson of Luigi makes contact with the family in Italy and with his wife determines to fulfill his grandfather's promise, but in an unexpected way.

After years of managing offshore development projects we found ourselves answering a stream of questions how to do certain things in outsourcing. As more new managers and engineers got involved in outsourcing and remote project management, they started looking for solutions to the similar issues we encountered before. Our colleagues and friends kept asking us again and again about outsourcing issues, so we decided to summarize our experience in a book focusing on intellectual property protection, remote human resource management and financial models of outsourcing activity. Everything in the book is based on our actual experience.
