You may already know that for some time I have been threatening to write the book on ‘How to Be A Better Manager‘.
And I still am.
But I have been thinking a bit about what I am actually trying to achieve with writing the book, and how best to achieve that purpose.
I want to help as many people as possible to become the best managers that they can be. To become outstanding managers in fact.
And of course I hope to make some money along the way!
Is writing a book the best way to do this? I am not so sure.
I have also been doing a lot of research on web based learning and training delivery – and it certainly now seems affordable and practical. The last time I looked about a decade back it was still really expensive, and few people could stream high quality video.
So instead I am considering a series of videos that will build into a 6 month course designed to really accelerate your journey towards becoming an outstanding manager. I may supplement the videos with transcripts and perhaps the occasional teleconference, webinar or good old face to face training session!
My plan is not to make the videos available all at once, but instead to release them at carefully planned intervals that will give you the chance to absorb the material from one video, try it out at work, refine it and develop your practice before the next video is released. This way you won’t get overwhelmed with information and will be able to make a series of manageable changes to your practice over time.
Alongside the videos will be a range of supporting materials including templates, aide memoirs and links to other materials to supplement your learning.
How does that sound? Interesting?
