Managing Up

Rosanne Badowski's extraordinary fifteen years in the trenches with Jack Welch have given her unparalleled expertise in the art of leadership. Far more than an ordinary how-to book, Managing Up is a terrifically engaging and entertaining read, filled with stories and lessons from a woman who has seen it all. - Noel Tichy, professor at the University of Michigan Business School and author of The Cycle of Leadership: How Great Leaders Teach Their Organizations to Win I always wondered how Jack did it... and now I know one big reason. Rosanne Badowski. Managing history's greatest manager - that's what Managing Up is all about, and it's riveting. Stand back, Peter Drucker. If you're the boss (or think you are)... read it. If you work for the boss, read it twice. You can't afford not to. - Gerry Roche, senior chairman of Heidrick & Struggles Rosanne has seen it all... Her book is an inside view of the pressures and life in the executive office. - Bob Wright, vice chairman and executive officer, GE; chairman & chief executive officer, NBC Managing Up shows what you can learn when you keep your eyes and ears open and happen to work for/with a terrific boss. Great lessons for readers here, managing up, down and sideways. - Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Business at the University of Southern California, and co-author of GEEKS AND GEEZERS
