Beschreibung

The author of the phenomenal New York Times bestselling classic The One-Minute® Manager explores one of the most common and insidious problems plaguing the workplace—procrastination. In every workplace, in every industry, lurks a diabolical career killer. Procrastination. In this latest addition to his bestselling series, Ken Blanchard tackles this problem head on, offering practical strategies any professional can immediately put into practice to improve his or her performance. In The On-Time Manager, he stells the story of Bob, a typical middle manager who tends to puts things off until the last minute. As a result, he misses deadlines because his lack of focus causes him to accomplish all the meaningless tasks before he can get to the important things. Like many professionals, Bob rationalizes, justifies, and tries to explain. With his trademark clarity and vision, Blanchard shows how Bob learns to overcome his problem transforming himself from a Last-Minute manager into a productive On-Time manager.
Based on the powerful "Three P Strategy," this book reveals how to:

- A Simple Productivity System: Master the Three P's—Priority, Propriety, and Commitment—to conquer your to-do list and focus on what truly matters.- Effective Decision Making: Learn the "triage" method to distinguish between the tasks you want to do and the ones you have to do to get results.- Reduce Workplace Stress: End the cycle of last-minute panic for yourself and your team by creating systems that ensure you're always ahead of schedule.- Meet Deadlines, Every Time: Follow the story of Bob the manager as he transforms from missing deadlines to delivering on-time, on-target results.
