The On-Time, On-Target Manager tells the highly recognizable story of Bob, a middle manager who tends to put things off to the last minute. He misses deadlines, rationalizes, justifies, and tries to explain. Luckily, Bob is sent to his company's CEO, a new kind of CEO, the "Chief Effectiveness Officer", who helps him deal with the three negative side effects of procrastination: lateness, poor work quality, and stress to himself and others. Bob learns how to overcome procrastination, and transforms himself into a productive On-Time, On-Target Manager through the Three P strategy.
With this engaging parable, Blanchard and Gottry tackle the problem of procrastination head-on, offering practical strategies any professional can immediately put into practice to improve his or her performance.

What did you like best about The On-Time, On-Target Manager? What did you like least?
+ quick read/listen, in the One Minute Manager style. Liked the "Bill of Rights" and have memorized it; one good way to think about a project and organizing a team around project management. Didn't think the story line was as powerful as other Blanchard books.How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
