A chapter in The Manager’s Dilemma, 2015, pp 3-11 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract THE MANAGER’S DILEMMA EXPLORES THE widening gap between the increasing demands we face and the shrinking resources we have available to meet them. However, this is not a time management book to deal with the avalanche of e-mails, meetings, and tasks dropped on your plate. Nor does it offer a packaged set of clever work-arounds to deal with the overflowing and stressful priorities you face. As you will see, it is time for managers to take off their capes once and for all; the superhuman notion of getting more and better work done with fewer resources is a profoundly damaging myth whose time has passed.
