Descrizione dell’editore
You are not in charge and you want to make a difference: that is the dilemma. You may not know who is in charge in today's changing, temporary, and virtual organizations, but you know you are not! You are searching for ways to contribute through the work you do and gain some personal satisfaction in the process. This book can help you do just that.
In this new edition of his classic book, Geoff Bellman shows readers how to make things happen in any organization regardless of their formal position. The new edition has been written for a wider audience, including people in both the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors, paid and volunteer workers, managers and individual contributors, contract and freelance workers. More than seventy percent of the material is brand new, including new examples, new chapters, new exercises, and much more.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Addressing middle management in a fiercely competitive, status- and title-oriented business world, consultant Bellman demonstrates how ``support'' professionals of all kinds, while serving their higher-echelon ``internal'' customers, can fulfill their own potential for professional and personal development beyond just ``earning a living.'' In this updated version of The Quest for Staff Leadership , the author--using eye-catching headings and short, easily grasped concepts--contrasts the role of management and that of support personnel, while also providing lists of goals, rules, steps to success, rewards and means of self-evaluation. Bellman also offers support professionals advice on how they can increase their level of responsibility and influence from that of gofer or research assistant to that of strategist, even approaching policy-making. 15,000 first printing; paperback rights to Fireside; BOMC, QPB and Fortune Book Club alternates.
