Abstract: Abstract Chapter 3 reviews briefly what is known about how to manage others effectively, so as to help the managerial reader to become (even) better at doing so, and to give students an overview of what is so important about ‘people management’. Managing other people is the essential and major aspect of all managerial jobs: it is what distinguishes management from professionals, who depend mainly upon themselves to achieve results. Managers are dependent upon achieving results through others; it is this dependence that marks the manager and makes it so important that he or she is able to enlist the cooperation and the best endeavour of others.
