Listen to internet radio with Steve Boese on Blog Talk Radio

This week we have re-booked author and Fortune Magazine Deputy Managing Editor Hank Gilman to join us to talk about his recent book, 'You Can't Fire Everyone and Other Lessons from an Accidental Manager'. Hank was meant to appear a few weeks back, but a scheduling mix-up got in the way, so we are giving this another try this week.

Hank tells the stories so many of us are familiar with - tales of a star employee suddenly thrust into a position managing others (often former peers), without the first clue as to what to do.

Hiring, firing, rewarding, motivating staff - not easy skills to learn on the fly. In addition to all the other 'management' stuff you suddenly have to deal with.

Hank will share some insights from his career in management and leadership, and hopefully some good advice for the other 'accidental managers' out there.

Tune in Thursday June 9th at 8PM ET for a fun and informative show!
