You haven t got time to read a 400-page book on any subject, and why would you want to anyway? This manual is for people who can think smart and pick up the essentials of a subject at the speed the real world moves at. It is a collection of condensed guides to 15 of the most important management topics you need to know about. Everything you need is in here ... and nothing else. No wasted space. When the panic’s rising and you have only a day left before your big presentation, or only half a day to draw up a departmental budget, all you want is hard - and fast - facts. These fast thinking guides will cut through the thought jungle, switch off the panic, and give you simple, concrete things to say, do and remember so you’ll have the shine that makes you look as though you’ve been polishing for weeks. The antidote to eleventh hour panic So what have you left to the last minute this time? Proposal? Appraisal? A major decision? Tackling that work overload? We all do it. However hard we try, there always seems to be something more urgent. And suddenly that vital meeting or interview is tomorrow morning, and you still haven’t done a stroke of preparation. Or maybe it’s the first time you’ve had to do this. You haven’t got time to wade through a weighty manual or attend a course. What you need is a smart and savvy guide to pulling it off as if you were a seasoned professional. Or maybe you don’t do it very often, and you need a refreshing refresher to bring you up to speed with minimal fuss. Whichever is the case, you need a fast thinking lifesaver. A minimalist guide to everything you need to know about the subject. Short enough to read fast - you haven’t got long - and full of cool ideas not only for getting through it, but for looking polished too. Tips for giving the impression you know more than you do, checklists to run through at the last minute, shortcuts for doing as little preparation as possible. And a clear, readable style so that you can understand it even through the fog of panic (which will subside once you read it). All you really need and nothing else OK, some of us are just downright disorganized, but most of us just have too much life and too little time. Here’s the good news, fast: knowledge is power. And the fast thinking guides give you the knowledge you need to face the job head on. Not only will they get you through it this time, but they will set you up for all the next times. Once you know what you’re doing, you’ll never worry about leaving it to the last minute again (but hey, why not keep the books on your shelf anyway). You’ll find that as you use the fast thinking guides, you’ll start to become a natural fast thinker yourself. You’ll pick up the fast thinking style of working with its smart approach: ► Always start by setting an objective (it saves you masses of wasted time later). ► Do your preparation fast but thoroughly (using all the tips and shortcuts fast thinkers have up their sleeves). ► Choose the fastest route there is to get the job done (plenty of advice on that fn here). ► Get it right first time (one of the smartest time-savers of all). It’s a fast world with tight deadlines, and you squeezed in between. You simply need last-minute solutions to help you think at the speed of life. Each of these guides gives you only the most vital information to make the best of your last few hours before crunch time. You’ve come to the right place. You’ll look good - they’ll never know.
