Yoda of Business. 5 Skills That Will Help You Succeed in Today's World

Possessing five key skills transforms an ordinary manager into a true Yoda of managerial mastery. Thoughtful, consistent, and one hundred percent confident in their influence on the team. Jacob Morgan identified these skills by conducting over 140 in-depth interviews with top-level executives from around the world. Among them are CEOs and presidents of companies such as Mastercard, Domino's Pizza, Audi, and Philip Morris International. The author noted that their approaches have far more similarities than differences. This allowed Morgan to summarize the acquired experience into a coherent methodology. With it, you will: • increase your authority in the team; • develop crisis management skills and understand how to elevate the company to several levels even in an unstable market; • learn how to motivate employees to achieve extraordinary results; • understand how to prepare the organization for any unforeseen circumstances and changes in the economy.
