wmartin 's review for:
The New One Minute Manager
by Kenneth H. Blanchard, Spencer Johnson
The insights that this book has to offer are worth examining, but they could have easily been covered in a blog post.
I implore you not to read it, so I'll give you everything you need to mark this book as read -Make sure your team knows what is expected of them individually and corporately (Set Goals) and offer regular feedback by way of in-the-moment praise (Support) when they've succeeded and supportive re-direction when they've failed (Challenge).
I'm not a big critic of narrative structure provided that the content is clearly articulated and valuable, but this is honestly beyond bad - almost unreadable.
Lastly, I'm beyond disgusted and appalled by the $25 USD price tag on the dust jacket of this book. I'm growing increasingly weary of successful businessman monetizing and re-monetizing principles that have already been covered in more depth elsewhere and/or could be explained in a 3 minute YouTube video. The first edition sold over 15 million copies - if you really feel like a "New One Minute Manager" is necessary, just give it away as an ebook. The value added is disproportionate to the investment and it damages your credibility as a leadership guide and mentor.
