Don't let the title or the number of pages fool you. This small volume packs substance. Situational management was not a fad. As recently as 1999, Peter Drucker (in his book "Management Challengers for the 21st Century") emphasized that despite the apparent hunger for learning "the one best way to manage, one such method does not exist." Producing desirable results is the goal of management; how to manage varies tremendously according to differences in situations. This book goes well beyond espousing the idea of "different strokes for different folks." Becoming a situational leader involves: 1. Starting with goals that are clear to both the manager and the people who will help accomplish them. 2. Working with her people to diagnose their "competence" and "commitment" to accomplish those goals. Diagnosis preceds effective management methods. 3. Contracting with each person on each of the tasks and jointly deciding which leadership style will likely be most effective. 4. Following through to provide the agreed-upon leadership style until either (i) enough progress or (ii) lack of suitable progress warrants a change in leadership style.

I enjoyed one minute manager and thought that this would offer me more opportunities to expand my skils. I wasn't wrong. As a manager, I am very focused on working on the individual strengths and weaknesses within my team. This book has offered me real skills to be able to focus on the individual strengths and weaknesses, without depleting my already pushed time. I honestly recommend this book.
