Tiger taming. How to become the leader of a creative team

A practical manual for each new manager who is entrusted with the leadership of a creative team (and not only creative!) From the author "Creative!" And "die, but do it".

newly made managers in creative fields receive promotion because they were good as performers. They learned to plan their time, build relationships and their own thinking in such a way as to become professionals in their field. But when they find themselves at the helm, the rules are changing, and now they must unlearn from their hardly conquered habits in favor of the new ones, and start moving along the minefield of relations with subordinates and the highest authorities.

Successful leaders of creative groups have mastered this transition from working to work management, and the book "Taming of Tigers" shows how to do this.

Todd Henry offers everyone an indispensable directory for competent tactical advice for new creative team managers. He uses an interview with successful leaders and his experience in counseling in creative organizations to share many practical tips, including:

- Why the conflict can be beneficial, and how to competently manage it.

- How to build bouhers for the time and attention of employees to help your team do your job "perfectly".

- How to cope with the imbalance of forces in your team and manage inevitably arising contractions.

- How to create "hunting trails" to support the inspiration and motivation of the team.

- Why do you still have to "stain your hands", even if now you are trying to move away from your previous work.

- Why should you fight to measure the quality, and not the time spent, evaluating the work of your team, and much more.

For whom this book
