أشكر المولى جلت قدرته .. أن يسر لي الدخول على موقع " قودريدز " ومنه .. قرأت ملخصاً للكتاب لأجزم على شرائه .. وأقرؤه في فترة أشد ما أحتاجه فيها !
مدير الدقيقة الواحدة .. كتاب إداري .. حاز على جوائز عالمية .. وبيع منه أكثر من 7 ملايين نسخة حول العالم .. كما ترجم إلى عدة لغات مختلفة ..
سأحاول أن ألخص أفكار الكتاب حتى تصل لذهن القارئ .. كما أشير بأن الملخص لا يغني عن قراءة الكتاب لأن بين السطور ما بينها .. وهناك الكثير من الفوائد التي جنيتها من الكتاب ..
تتلخص فكرة مدير الدقيقة الواحدة بالتالي :
1. وضع أشكر المولى جلت قدرته .. أن يسر لي الدخول على موقع " قودريدز " ومنه .. قرأت ملخصاً للكتاب لأجزم على شرائه .. وأقرؤه في فترة أشد ما أحتاجه فيها !
مدير الدقيقة الواحدة .. كتاب إداري .. حاز على جوائز عالمية .. وبيع منه أكثر من 7 ملايين نسخة حول العالم .. كما ترجم إلى عدة لغات مختلفة ..
سأحاول أن ألخص أفكار الكتاب حتى تصل لذهن القارئ .. كما أشير بأن الملخص لا يغني عن قراءة الكتاب لأن بين السطور ما بينها .. وهناك الكثير من الفوائد التي جنيتها من الكتاب ..
تتلخص فكرة مدير الدقيقة الواحدة بالتالي :
1. وضع هدف الدقيقة الواحدة .. وهي عبارة عن مجموعة أهداف للموظفين الذي يتبعونك .. يتلخص كل هدف بـ 250 كلمة .. يمكن استعراض الهدف بدقيقة واحدة .. ويكون واضح ومحدد ويعرف به المدير والموظف المسئول عنه ..
2. ثناء الدقيقة الواحدة .. وهي عبارة عن قضاء دقيقة واحدة مع موظف أنجز مهمة أو عمل أو هدف أو قام بعمل جبار .. ترتب على كتفه .. وتثني عليه في دقيقة .. وتتبادلون الضحكات وتعطيه شعور الراحة والطمأنينة في العمل وبيئة العمل ..
3. لوم الدقيقة الواحدة .. وهي أن تلقي باللوم والعتاب على موظف بشكل سريع ومباشر .. قصر أو لم يحقق هدفاً أو تجاوز وأخطأ في مهمة أو لم يتابع مهمة مكلف بها .. تلومه .. تعابته .. ثم تنصرف وتعطيه انطباعاً أنك تريد أفضل من هذا العمل في المستقبل ..
وفي ثنايا الكتاب .. هناك الكثير من الإشارات الذكية والمهمة إدارياً بل وحتى في العلاقات الاجتماعية .. وأعتقد أن المؤلف ليس مديراً ناجحاً فقط .. بل ومتعامل متمرس مع الناس أجمع .. مدير الدقيقة الواحدة دائماً لديه وقت .. لا يكرر الكلام .. يشعرك بالراحة بمجرد الجلوس أمامه ..
أجمل ما في الكتاب .. أنه جاء في سرد قصصي ممتع .. ليس بطريقة السرد النمطي المعهود في كتب الإدارة .. أو وضع الجداول المملة والطلب بتعبئة الاستمارة أو محاولة إملاء طريقة أو تقنين فكرة من خلال مثال .. لا .. بل فيه إشارات روحية وسلوكية أكثر من راقية .. راق لي الكثير من العبارات المختصرة والتي تعطيك فكرة ميسرة في التعامل مع نفسيات الموظفين ..
مقدمة الكتاب جداً راقية وجذابة .. أفضل ما في الكتاب أنه سلس وسهل وتستطيع أن تنجزه في خلال جلسة واحدة .. لم أفعل ذلك لعدم فراغي بشكل كبير بالإضافة لمحاولة استيعاب أكبر قدر ممكن من المعلومات المسرودة في الكتاب ..
لك أن تقرأه مرة واثنتان وثلاث .. وستجد في كل مرة تقرأ الكتاب فائدة كانت خفية بين السطور .. وإشارة نفسية جداً رائعة ..
سأضعه على مكتبي دائماً .. وأعود بعد رمضان إن شاء الله لأقرأه من جديد ..
أوصيه به بشدة .. ليس للمدراء فقط .. بل لكل الناس ..
ومن أروع ما فيه .. أن مدير الدقيقة الواحدة .. يعلم الناس كلهم أسرار إدارة الدقيقة الواحدة !

3. A healthy overlay of positive thinking.

4. characters you could care less about because they are one dimensional, mindless automatons sent by the author to fulfill his didactic purposes but do not breath, bleed, or have any life of their own.
5. Lots of slogans that would look nice on a plaque over your desk. Maybe a nice motivational poster.

Well truth be told, some authors in the genre have more quality than others. Not this one, but it distinguishes itself as providing the template for all such books that followed. Written thirty years ago, this New York Times bestseller, follows the adventures of a young man in search for the greatest management model in the universe. Presumably this is to rule the galaxy (though this is more implied than said). Some of the managers he observes are focused on people but not results. Others focus on results but screw people over. That is until he discovers the 'One Minute Manager.' A manager so named because he doesn't have to spend much time with his people. At all. A minute here and there will suffice.

Actually there is some helpful management advice:

1. Have employees write out a 250 word summary of their goals (main objectives) which you both keep on file. The process of clarifying things so that both managers and employees know what their objectives are means greater success and less communication is necessary.
2. The One Minute praise-Catch your employee doing something right and specifically praise them for that action and let them know how valuable it is for you.
3. The One minute reprimand-when employees do something wrong, immediately and specifically reprimand them for that action, though put it in the context of their overall good work.

This is all helpful advice in managing people. That way, they are clear on objectives, feel valued and know exactly where they screw up without having to deal with an angry build up. But really this is the entire substance of the book. Along the way the characters, spout off the same advice and show each other motivational messages on plaques. There is also a lot of advice about touching people to communicate you care. It isn't normally the case, but my guess is that this book would be much better as a movie. Wait for it. ...more

This short book packs a lot of advice about effective management into an allegorical story. The tips are realistic and practical, and not too preachy. Here are my notes, mostly quoted straight from the book:

Manager Types
Autocratic
- "Tough"
- Interested in results
- Profit-minded
- Organization wins while people lose
Democratic
- "Nice"
- Interested in people
- People win while organization loses

People who feel good about themselves produce good results.

The writing is absolutely wretched. It's as if it were written for school children. Poorly.

That being said, I think this is probably a really solid management style. I just wish they showed a little more respect for the reader. The dialog attribution alone is nausea-inducing.

This is from the same school of thought as Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends & Influence People. Which is, basically, if you manipulate people into thinking you care about them, they'll do what you want. Of course, it's ...more

David Brent could have written this book. It's so cheesey and american it's unreal. Basically it has three ideas. One minute target setting - all goals mapped out in less than 250 words with each team member getting fourteen or fifteen or twenty odd or something targets. There's also one minute praise. It advises you to 'touch people in a reassuring way' during these sessions. That idea scares me and I don't intend to touch my staff in any manner at any time. Finally, if someone has the ability to achieve a goal but fails to do so, there's the one minute bollocking. The first half of this - or 30 seconds I would assume - is a standard bollocking but you must remember to tell the person 'how you feel' about the failure. Then you spend the next half telling the person how you are only bollocking them because you usually have such faith in them and know how good they are. Again, touching is encouraged during this process.

It's weird and rubbish. Don't follow a formula as professional people deserve an individual approach. Don't pre-plan to touch people - we're British and touching isn't appropriate in a professional environment. Stroking someone's arm to show them that 'you care about their success' is inappropriate.

Finally, the main thing I hated was how the book was written. It's written as a narrative about an imagined 'young man' who visits a company to talk to a manager. The manager he meets is a 'One Minute Manager' and then, as the book progresses, he meets a number of the manager's staff who tell him about the three pillars of the method. The writing is unconvincing and poor and, as a work of literature it is almost offensively bad.

It's a book that succeeds on no levels whatsoever and I pity anyone who thinks that it is a useful tool in which to learn about how to deal with people. Prospective managers should move away from a formula and look to try to learn about their staff as individuals and as people. The book does hint at this and this is the only lesson that anyone should possibly derive from it. ...more

Simple, quick and entertaining story about how to manage yourself and be a manager.

You'd think there'd be a secret sauce to it, some way to conduct yourself or boss people around in an effective way. Turns out, the three steps of managing (goal setting, praising and reprimanding) are not only a '"minute" each, but couldn't be more jaw-dropping obvious and right.

I Liked this book and let me try to summarize the takeaway using a small example of a game called “Bowling”:

Let’s say a person X (who is supervisor level of employee) is playing bowling and the pins are being place by another person Y (who is happens to be a senior management level employee). The idea is that the Y will set the pins and X will strike the pins using the ball.

The catch here in the game is that there is a curtain in between the player who is bowling and the pins he need to strike ( I Liked this book and let me try to summarize the takeaway using a small example of a game called “Bowling”:

Let’s say a person X (who is supervisor level of employee) is playing bowling and the pins are being place by another person Y (who is happens to be a senior management level employee). The idea is that the Y will set the pins and X will strike the pins using the ball.

The catch here in the game is that there is a curtain in between the player who is bowling and the pins he need to strike (this is basically a communication GAP or vision GAP between two levels in an organization).

Due to this curtain (communication gap) X doesn’t know how many balls he need to hit as target and how many he did as actual. Another problem is every time when he misses the pins he is been scolded and punished (so firstly he in unaware about no & positions of the pins due to communication gap and now instead of getting help he is being demotivated every time when he misses the pins by his manager).

The book has offered 3 management tips which will help you fix the above explained problem.

First TIP: MBO (management by objective) where you set the broad level goal and detailed targets and way to achieve these targets are defined by employee himself. So, now X know how many pins will be there to hit. Because he was involved in their setup.

Second TIP: Now when X throws the ball and hits few pins, in normal scenario Y shouts you missed 3 pins however management should say that you hit 4 pins (so instead of telling what he did wrong tell him what he did correct. “Caught an employee doing something correct and appreciate him”). He already knows what target was, so anyway he can find out what he missed.

Third TIP: Course correction where you periodically review and guide the team on what corrective actions are suggested. i.e. ask him to shoot the ball little to left always as he gets more pins every time he does that.

4 out of 5. It’s always lovely to end up reading good things to implement.

There are some great lessons in this book but I found the format of the Socratic Dialogue to come off as gimmicky. This book assumes a team that are all intrinsically motivated and can operate completely independently but even if you are still working on more basic staff development there is plenty to take away. If you can get past the quirky format of the book, it's worth the hour and a half to read.

The One Minute Manager is a short book written by Kenneth Blanchard and Spencer Johnson. Written in a style of fiction, The One Minute Manager presents through example and explanation a method of managing people in a short period of time using only 3 steps.

The main idea behind the book is that to manage people quickly and effectively, there are 3 important steps: 1) Goal Setting, in which an agreement is reached on the person's responsibilities and then these responsibilities are broken down and The One Minute Manager is a short book written by Kenneth Blanchard and Spencer Johnson. Written in a style of fiction, The One Minute Manager presents through example and explanation a method of managing people in a short period of time using only 3 steps.

The main idea behind the book is that to manage people quickly and effectively, there are 3 important steps: 1) Goal Setting, in which an agreement is reached on the person's responsibilities and then these responsibilities are broken down and recorded as goals. These goals should be short so that they can be revisited often. 2) Praise, in which praise is given for the person's accomplishments immediately upon completing something that deserves praise. This is typically most important at the beginning of a project when it needs to be enforced that the person is capable of doing their job. 3) Reprimands, in which reprimands are given for the person's errors immediately upon them being noticed. This typically takes place after it has been enforced that the person is fully capable of doing their job well, and thus the error is out of character for them.

Although I like the main idea of the book, and I see theoretically how it could be an effective management strategy, I didn't like how the book presented it. First, the story was written as if it was both written by and written for an elementary school student. Sentences are simple, and the conversation sounded like a badly scripted drama. Second, the amount of white space in the book is ridiculous. The text-size is quite large in itself, but to make matters worse, the left-right margins already seem a little bigger than normal, and the top-bottom margins are often huge: it's like they write out a couple of paragraphs, and then center those few paragraphs in the middle of the page, even if this means a vertical border exceeding 5 inches in length...

Overall, I thought the book presented an interesting idea. I liked the people-focus of the book ("Everyone is a potential winner. Some people are disguised as losers. Don't let their appearances fool you."), although the way it presented its content I thought to be a work in progress. For anyone interested in this topic, I would suggest picking this book up. It's a super-short read, and hopefully presents something new for you. ...more
