Managing the Managers

More about the book

Managing a company with 35 - 57 employees requires a business owner who knows the value of hiring professional managers, who isn't afraid to admit what they don't know, and who recognizes that their ability to grow ensures that their company grows. In Laurie Taylor's fourth book in her series of the 7 Stages of Growth, she identifies the top five challenges a company with 35 - 57 employees needs to be aware of and how to find solutions for those challenges. Taylor identifies the hidden agents - issues that are invisible to CEOs which cause obstacles to growth. Understanding which hidden agents to focus on and how to get to the root cause of those issues are outlined in Managing the Managers. Based on a research study that examined over 650 successful companies, and the finding that as a company grows the complexity level increases for only one reason -- People! Taylor's books are designed to help CEOs navigate their own growth curve as they grow their business from 1 employee up to 500 employees. The 7 Stages of Growth model allows CEOs to actually predict how to prepare for growth, focus on the right things at the right time, and adjust their leadership skills to the needs of the company as it grows.
