Описание: "This is a must-read for bosses and subordinates alike, as it exposes our flaws but teaches us how we can work together to achieve our common goals." --Ellen Coulter, President, The Advantage Software Company What do you do when the biggest threat to your project is your boss? It's not that your boss is out to get you. In fact, bosses generally mean well. But clueless leadership from a well-intentioned boss can sometimes cause more damage than a criminal mastermind tying your project to the railroad tracks. The Unwritten Rules of Managing Up provides refreshingly practical and candid insight into the best practices and techniques that project managers have successfully used for decades to manage a wide variety of senior-level stakeholders--ranging from perfectly competent and pleasant to downright dysfunctional and inept. While managing up is an incredibly valuable skill for virtually any type of boss (not just the difficult ones), the book includes recommendations for managing six particularly challenging--and common--types of senior leaders. They are the bombastic Tornado, who takes over meetings without realizing it; the Wishful Thinker, who regularly asks the impossible; the Clueless Chameleon, who can't quite decide what he or she really wants (but still holds you responsible for delivering it); the MIA Boss, who is just not around enough; the Meddlesome Micromanager, who hovers and insists you complete a task his or her way; and the Naked Emperor, who falls in love with his or her own crazy ideas. Brownlee also offers basic techniques to use with any boss, even a great one. This book is not just for professionals seeking to enhance their workplace effectiveness but also for senior leaders interested in addressing their blind spots and coaching others toward a more collaborative, results-focused leadership approach.

From a high school dropout to Doctor of the Year, the author's inspired journey into the field of medicine brought him face to face with life's most profound moments. In this fascinating memoir he recounts true case histories of his most interesting and challenging patient encounters over the course of forty years of family practice. A few tales are humorous and many are intriguing or bizarre. Some are touching, sad, or tragic but most have happy endings after a few close calls, and a couple of miracles. The reader will find the stories related here to be engaging as well as educational. Dr. Brownlee's hope is to motivate readers to be aware of the warning signals that their bodies relay to change their behavior to avoid illness and perhaps even save their own lives.
