Summary

In this world of information overload, managers still have a serious information gap.

In addition to their management development experiences, managers function with certain assumptions based on the information they have about the leadership, motivational and relationship needs of those persons they manage.

The degree to which this information is relevant, complete, and accurate depends on the nature of the information they seek, the responses given by their work team, and the context within which this information is communicated.

The Management Feedback System™ process resolves these issues in a simple, rapid, cost-effective manner. Bridging this information gap, along with collaborative work team action planning results in:

• Increased Team Performance and Productivity
  
• Improved Communication Channels
  
• Enhanced Managerial Effectiveness
  
• Stronger Work Relationships
  
• Reduced Stress

This is a major, unique enhancement of a classic process for developing effective change strategies by comparing self and other's perceptions. Managers will identify congruent and discrepant perceptions between themselves and those they lead, and develop more consistent actions that meet the team's leadership needs.

Sophisticated computer software and the well-tested implementation process enable managers of work teams to:

• Obtain valuable information about the team's needs.
  
• Get feedback about their own behavior's impact on team performance.
  
• Develop action plans to improve their own effectiveness as leaders of people and managers of performance.

The opportunity for managers to get immediate, specific, expert Interpretations and Recommendations, for all possible outcomes of their results, distinguishes this management tool from all available others.
