Leadership and the one minute manager — Reader discussion

I really appreciated how 'Leadership and the One Minute Manager' breaks down leadership into three clear techniques: one minute goals, one minute praisings, and one minute reprimands. It’s refreshing how these concepts are straightforward yet impactful, making it easier to apply them without feeling overwhelmed. The conversational style made the lessons feel personal and relatable. Have you tried any of these one-minute techniques in your own management experience, and if so, what changes did you notice in your team dynamics?

What stood out to me was the emphasis on situational leadership, adapting your management style depending on the development level of your team members. It’s a reminder that leadership isn’t one-size-fits-all, and being flexible can really boost effectiveness. The book’s brevity and clarity make it a great resource for busy managers who want quick wins without diving into heavy theory. How do you think applying situational leadership can change the way conflicts or challenges are handled in the workplace?
