    About this ebook

    Mostly, management is about people skills, getting support (and even appreciation!) from those whose work you oversee. An intuitive manager "knows" the right things to say and do -- reflex actions that keep work moving and build rapport by creating success for co-workers. You already know most of this -- it's just about getting it organized. These 12 keys lead you to become the best of the rest!
