Managing people when you're not their boss is a challenge, particularly in professional service firms where, increasingly, top professionals are being tapped to lead their peers. Now Patrick McKenna and David Maister provide a 'play book' for professionals trying to be both a team member and coach. In industies ranging from banking and insurance to law and engineering, as well as in research labs and software companies, management responsibility is increasingly delegated - usually without guidance - to those who head up smaller teams of professionals. FIRST AMONG EQUALS speaks directly to those who have gone from focusing on their own performance to being a group manager in charge of leading others. From understanding the group leader role to setting terms of reference and effectively dealing with talented prima donnas, McKenna and Maister present a thorough introduction to managing and orchestrating talent.

Dalla quarta di copertina:
'This is a fast-moving, practical book, full of proven strategies and techniques that you can use immediately to manage a professional group more effectively'
Brian Tracy, author of Maximum Achievement
Whether you have just been appointed as a group leader or you are a battle-scarred veteran, you know that managing professional people is difficult. In this strikingly unique 'playbook', professional service experts David Maister and Patrick McKenna provide real-world examples, a wealth of self-evaluation materials, and concrete advice on stressful day-to-day management issues that every leader of professionals will welcome. The authors offer penetrating insights into the basics of coaching, dividing their attention equally between energizing and guiding the individual performer and the group.
There has never been a book quite like this. First Among Equals is essential reading for practice leaders and group heads in the professional sector as well as managers of highly talented, technical knowledge workers everywhere.

'Ripe with "what tos", and rife with "how tos", this book is a valuable contribution for leaders and shapers of culture'
Max Landsberg, author of The Tao of Coaching
