Winning Well | Book Series

Overview:

Leadership training experts Karin Hurt and David Dye provide such a roadmap, giving current and aspiring managers the tools needed to achieve consistent excellence. The authors encourage managers to extend their time horizon beyond the next monthly or quarterly earnings report, and to think about how to build teams that create long-lasting value, whose members reinforce one another, and that are interdependent. “Where other manager types tend to focus on short-term goals, managers who win well have a longer time horizon,” say Hurt and Dye. “They build teams that will produce results today as well as next year. Winning well means sustaining excellence over time.”
