On The Table Read Magazine, “the best book magazine in the UK“, in Manage Promises Not People: How To Create A Self-Managing Team by Eric Papp, leaders learn how to create a culture of ownership and personal accountability.
According to management trainer Eric Papp, the root cause of many problems facing organizations today, including lackluster performance, is a shortage of standards of behavior. For most managers, too much time is spent grappling with time-consuming, frustrating challenges that arise when team members don’t follow through on commitments.
In his new book, Manage Promises Not People: How To Create A Self-Managing Team, Papp unpacks the inefficiencies of micromanagement and shares ways for leaders to create a culture of ownership and personal accountability by raising the bar of behavior.
Micromanagement is what happens when you manage the person instead of their promises. When we honor our promises and ensure others do the same, we make things happen and feel more in control and confident.
-Eric Papp

• The disappointing trend of diminishing promises;
• Creating a culture of ownership;
• Honoring your word (and the impact of not doing so);
• Staying committed while overcoming perfectionism;
• Repairing broken promises; and
• Coaching others to honor their word.
This book is a must-read for anyone. As a whole, we have lost the fact that ‘our word is our bond,’ and it reflects on our integrity, both in our professional and personal lives. Manage Promises Not People will get you back on track to be the person everyone knows they can rely on because you say what you’re going to do, and you do what you said you were going to do.
