This book takes readers through the fundamentals of management, including chapters on how to successfully manage yourself, your employees, your boss, and your reputation. The New Manager's Starter Kit provides the techniques necessary to make it as a manager, answering questions like: * What is the biggest mistake a manager can make in hiring? * Why must managers make communications an obsession? * What is the ""planning hierarchy""? * When, where, and how should a manager fire someone? * How can satisfying ten basic employee needs transform you into a leader? With rules and tools included in each chapter, this book will help the less experienced manager master critical skills for job success and personal satisfaction."

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
With 40 years of management experience, Crittendon is betting that his nine lessons--including how to approach one's goals, one's boss and one's staff as well as conflicts, changes, etc.--which have been covered by dozens of other books, will be new to first-time managers, and he may very well be right. Readers will appreciate hearing this basic advice (e.g., don't ask yes-or-no questions when interviewing someone) from an old hand rather than having to learn it the hard way. Illus.
