Seth Godin has been catching my eye again by stealing our catch phrase – “It’s about Getting Things Done”![](https://www.smallfish.com.au/images/Blog Images/Seth Godin_New.png"")
Stealing maybe an overstatement but he’s written about three ways of getting better performance from people, illustrated by a book about a basketball coach (it’s got the word ‘coach” in it, so I read it). As usual, Seth is speaking my language – you get better results from your people, not by hounding them or by pitting them against each other but by giving them a platform to succeed and excel. It’s a bit scary but, ultimately, rewarding. Not only that, it’s respectful and decent, too.
How do you manage your people?
