The set-up-to-fail syndrome
Manzoni, Jean-Francois
The set-up-to-fail syndrome how good managers cause great people to fail - Boston Harvard Business School 2002 - xiv, 280p. 24cm.
Written by two leadership experts, this text examines the problems that managers face in managing their employees, especially those perceived to be weak or failing and how the boss's approach can in fact compound the problem. Using interviews, illustrative stories and research, it shows how to determine whether you are in a set-up-to-fail situation; recognise the mental biases that cause bosses to trigger the cycle; understand how subordinates contribute to fuelling the problem; take specific steps to interrupt the cycle through proactive interventions; and prevent the syndrome altogether by managing relationships differently.
