HBR’s 10 Must Reads on Managing People, Vol. 2

Management advice tends to pile up faster than anyone can read it, and this second volume answers that by selecting from the Harvard Business Review archive rather than adding to it. Ten articles are gathered here, each chosen for what a working manager can act on. Contributors include Marcus Buckingham with Ashley Goodall, Linda A. Hill with Kent Lineback, Teresa M. Amabile with Steven J. Kramer, Francesca Gino, Christine Porath, Patty McCord and Michael D. Watkins. The pieces address feedback, motivation, civility at work, hiring standards, inherited teams and collaboration across silos. Each article stands alone, so the collection can be read in order or opened at whichever problem is currently pressing. Handy details: • Ten selected Harvard Business Review articles bound in one volume • Named pieces on feedback, small wins, incivility and rebuilding an inherited team • Guidance on drawing out individual strengths rather than correcting weaknesses • Self-contained chapters that suit short reading sessions between meetings Useful for new and experienced managers, team leads and human resources professionals.
