One of my favorite quotes concerning Team Management is  ”A leader without long-term, engaged and devoted followers is just a lonely person with a title.”  Wayne Kehl
(Wayne Kehl is President and CCO at Dynamic Leadership Inc. He is author and behavioral analyst who lectures on leadership and motivation. He is also one of my favorite Management Team Leaders)
In the excerpts you have posted in the IT Bookworm Blog, I see many other possible favorites quoted from Managing the Unmanageable: Rules, Tools, and Insights for Managing Software People and Teams.
I would love to win a copy of this book – here’s hoping!
