THE ALCHEMIST ABOUT TOWN

Bits and bobs

"The On-time On-target Manager" by Ken Blanchard and Steve Gottry

The On-Time, On-Manager  is a story which unfortunately will resonate to many, a story about a putting things off until the last minute, sometime missing deadlines, whilst rationalising, justifying and making excuses trying to explain 
(mostly to ourselves). Yes, that's right, the dreaded procrastination.

The book takes you through a journey of self-realisation (via Bob, the manager) on how to overcome procrastination by developing a clear picture of where you have been, where you are now, and where you are headed and then developing the ability to see how poor decisions can separate you from good results. 
You are then able to commit to real goals and tasks that turn you from a Last-Minute Manager into a "On-Time, On-Target Manager"

Blanchard and Gottry offer practical strategies any manager/person can put into practice to improve his or her performance.

As I said before , simple does it and it does it well.
