The 80/20 Manager

The Secret to Working Less and Achieving More

De: Richard Koch

Narrado por: Roger Davis

Best-selling author Richard Koch shows managers how to apply the 80/20 Principle to achieve exceptional results at work - without stress or long hours.

In his best-selling audiobook The 80/20 Principle, Richard Koch showed listeners how to put the 80/20 Principle - the idea that 80 percent of results come from just 20 percent of effort - into practice in their personal lives. Now in The 80/20 Manager, he demonstrates how to apply the principle to management. An 80/20 manager learns to focus only on the issues that really matter, achieving exceptional results, and feeling successful everyday while working less hard in fewer hours.

A large number of managers - especially in these difficult times - feel completely overwhelmed. Their inboxes are overflowing and they constantly struggle to finish their to-do lists, leaving little time for the things that really matter. The 80/20 Manager shows a new way to look at management - and at life - to enjoy work and build a successful and fulfilling career.

It was okay

I got lost a few times when listening to this because to me, it seems like the author goes off on quite a few tangents. In my opinion, only the last 25 to 50% of the book was information I was looking for in regards to the 80/20 principal.

Great resource for managers

Wish I had read this many years ago. Truly inspiring read and listen. Reading and listening to it at the same time made for a richer and more reflective experience.

80/20 Refresher

I discovered the 80/20 books years ago, and enjoy incorporating them into my routine.

The concept

It was thought provoking And full of simple to understand concepts that are easily applied.

Great strategies for managers

Listened to it a couple times.

On the surface some of the ideas of will make you uncomfortable if you are a fan of command and control philosophies.

I will probably listen to it again.

Off topic BS
Tons of irrelevant data and stories
