#1 NYT Bestselling Co-authors Ken Blanchard and Spencer Johnson Release “The New One Minute Manager,” an Updated Version of The Business Classic that Sold Millions
New York, NY (PRWEB) May 05, 2015 -- Today, Ken Blanchard and Spencer Johnson release their highly anticipated new book “The New One Minute Manager.” Taking into account the drastic changes of the past three decades, this new sequel takes the timeless advice of the original book to a new level for modern readers.
The original “The One Minute Manager,” first published in 1982, took the world by storm. Over the years it has sold more than 15 million copies and been translated into more than 42 languages, making it one of the most influential books about managing work and life.
Available now at all major retailers, “The New One Minute Manager” is as compelling today as “The One Minute Manager” was thirty years ago. Staying true to the original, the book is a parable of a young man searching for a great manager.
“‘The New One Minute Manager’ realizes that today, the old top-down style doesn’t work, as people want to bring their brains to work. Leadership is a partnership, rather than a superior-subordinate relationship,” says Blanchard about the evolution of the book’s content.
“People are different today,” Johnson adds, “They want to find more meaning in their work and be appreciated for what they contribute.”
Attesting to the timeliness and relevance of Blanchard and Johnson’s new book, Clare Diaz-Ortiz, former VP of Social Innovation & Corporate Philanthropy at Twitter, Inc, says, “I’m thrilled with ‘The New One Minute Manager,’ because it recognizes how much the world has changed.”
Through a concise, easy-to-read format, “The New One Minute Manager” teaches readers updated versions of the Three Secrets of leading others. After reading “The New One Minute Manager,” readers will learn how to leverage One Minute Goals, One Minute Praisings, and One Minute Re-Directs to get better results today.
