Abstract: In business today we're told that management development is a thing of the past. Preparing to change hats at a moment's notice and keeping your finger on the pulse of the "new"--We're told--is critical. Erika Andersen says just the opposite. If you want to compete with the market leaders, grow your business, and succeed in your field, you need support: an all-star staff that epitomizes your company's mission and has the skills to implement it. How do you achieve this? Use listening to motivate and build commitment. Re-learn how to interview: to discover what you really need in a potential employee and how to find it. Successful companies hire for keeps: get people feeling like part of the team from day one. And: great leaders surround themselves with the best: recognize who has potential and develop them into tomorrow's leaders.--From publisher description.
