Successful managers must often will work like a coach.
They will assess each person’s strengths and weaknesses and develop strategies to get the job done. The 4-Dimensional Manager shows how managers can become more effective by using the DiSC.
In the book’s first part, readers assess their own DiSC style, the style of the people they manage, and the style of their organization. The second part shows how to choose the most effective style (or combination of styles) for any situation, focusing on seven key areas: delegating, decision making, problem-solving, motivating, complimenting, giving constructive feedback, and developing skills.
Susan’s interview with author Julie Straw takes the listener through the key points in the book, providing great background on the DiSC Model of Behavior and how to apply it in management relationships.
