Editorial Review:
Margaret Morford - America's fastest-rising management strategist - has a no-nonsense message for managers everywhere: In today's fiercely competitive marketplace, you simply cannot afford to be the wishy-washy, "play it safe" manager of yesteryear. Why not? Because managing like that will earn you two rewards: Your best employees hitting the Exit door doing 95 mph and your bottom-line sinking like a stone. Dismissing today's burned-out management theories, Margaret reveals the ultimate 6-step management makeover - Management Courage. In seven profoundly eye-opening chapters, Margaret shows why this unorthodox, revolutionary strategy must be embraced now by every manager and employer wishing to win the impassioned devotion of their employees.

A must read for all managers who want to be effective 2007-08-31
This book is a quick read filled with many immediately useful actions. I finished the book completely re-energized. Management is not for the faint of heart. It is difficult to tell people things they don't want to hear, but it is essential to be able to do so if one is to be a successful manager. With humor and significant insight, Margaret Morford reminds us of the role we've chosen as managers and the committment required. Management Courage is essential for effective leaders. Margaret Morford is as compelling in print as she is in person.


Integrity wins in the long run! 2007-01-19
This was a wonderful read! I love the stories that put a real personal touch to the book. This book represents what it takes to have courage to hold integrity on issues that take great character in dealing with people.
The courage to hold true to standards has a wonderful outcome if all people are treated like human beings. Employees of today need to be feel valued and appreciated! This is a manager must read!


Management Courage: Having the Heart of a Lion 2006-11-04
I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated this book.

It is a quick read (I read it between Seattle and Dallas) due to its length and the interest level it generates.

Rarely do I read a management book with which I can wholeheartedly agree. This is one. This book reinforces what my experience has shown me, and encourages me to stick to what I know is true and right.




Test Your Management Courage 2006-10-05
Do you want to test your Management Courage? Read this down-to-earth, insightful, thought provoking, easy to read, challenging and entertaining book. By far the best management book I have read in many years. This is a book you will want to read in one sitting - really!


management courage is a verb 2006-07-11
Management Courage is a refreshing, straightforward book of principles anyone striving to be a leader should read. What is most refreshing about this book is the author's ability to relate personal and practical examples to the reader that can truly be applied to his/her actual workplace. Management Courage discusses concepts, that on the surface seem to be common sense. In reality, they are often difficult to execute. Examples are shared that show the reader what courage truly looks like in a variety of real life work situations. I would recommend this book as a "handbook" of sorts for every leader I know.
