ONE MINUTE MANAGER MEETS THE MONKEY_THE. (Ken Bl

How management can effectively rid themselves of 'monkeys' -- other people's responsibilities that cling to them and prevent them managing efficiently. This book explains in simple-minded if abstract terms how to achieve a balance between supervision and delegation for reduced tension and improved productivity in the work-place. There is a high correlation between self-reliance and morale, stress the authors. With humor and logic they describe the delicate business of assigning monkeys to the right masters and keeping them healthy, i. e. , fed and cared for: ...if monkeys are managed properly, you don't have to manage people so much.
