Monkey Business

Overview

Are You Controlling Events Or Are Events Controlling You?

When managers are plagued by reverse delegation the monkeys (assignments) end up on their backs and desks rather than those of their subordinates. Thus many managers find themselves running out of time while their employees are running out of work -- they fall behind in their employees work as well as in their own.

This book underscores the value of assigning delegating and controlling the monkeys that dominate a manger s time by partnering with employees for their care and feeding. It helps the hopelessly overwhelmed deal productively and realistically with such problems as:

  • Desks piled high with papers voice-mails and e-mails past the saturation point.
  • Frustrated employees waiting for decisions and actions from the boss.
  • Frustrated bosses wondering why they ever hire anyone if delegation never works.
  • Falling behind leaving no time for family and other interests.
  • The inability to say no.
  • The belief that if you want something done right you ve got to do it yourself
  • No time to plan your work let alone work your plan.

Effective managers eliminate reverse delegation by training their employees to become self-reliant (rather than boss-reliant) members of an interdependent on them freeing up time for (1) key personal and professional relationships and (2) planning organizing leading and making sure things stay on track: on time and under budget.
