People management can be the most rewarding—and frustrating—part of a
leader’s job. What aptitudes are valued most in managers and executives?
Substantial research and a wealth of shared organizational experience
demonstrate that it is a manager’s “people skills” that truly make the
difference.

In The 6 Habits of Highly Effective Bosses, co-authors Stephen E. Kohn and
Vincent D. O’Connell present an easy-to-read, sensibly presented review of
six indispensable human relations practices used by the bosses everyone
admires – and likes to work for – the most. With a combined fifty years of
experience helping companies resolve “people problems” in the workplace,
management coaches and leadership trainers Kohn and O’Connell guide
managers through a sensible, incremental model of supervisory “people
skills” development.

The 6 Habits of Highly Effective Bosses also provides a means for managers
to coach themselves toward goals that they are encouraged to set for
themselves, and the end result is not only knowledge gained, but also greater
applied supervisory competency. By practicing the strategically conceived
exercises, managers can apply the recommended skills to real workplace
supervisory challenges.

For the busy manager seeking effective and timely results from leadership
development training, this book can become a springboard for solid
professional growth and accelerated success in the development of
all-important people management skills.
