The Templar Legion

<p>A 2014 Gallup poll indicates that the persons chosen by corporations for management positions are unsuccessful 82% of the time. The reasons for this high degree of failure have been attributed to multiple areas. One is the method in which the person is selected since we often reward good performances with promotions to management. Another is the environment in which a person must manage, such as high stress, employee hostility, and even apathetic uninvolvement by both staff and management. The one area receiving the smallest amount of attention is training. Most employers point to the plethora of management training courses offered in-house and online. They assume that every facet of management must be covered in the curriculum that is offered. However, most don't realize that there are two basic components required for success; the tasks a manager performs and the way a manager behaves. The available management courses cover the tasks quite well and in detail. But, management behaviours are addressed, at best, only obliquely. The Ten Commandments of Management describes the ten essential behaviors that are required to be a successful manager in the business. These make up such an important component of management that the omission of any one behavior can impede a career, or destine it to failure.</p>
