For Your Improvement: A Development and Coaching Guide for Learners, Supervisors, Managers, Mentors, and Feedback Givers: Development Views

This is an excellent tool for creating Performance Management goals. I recommend this book to anyone that would like to improve their own skills or for anyone that is responsible for generating Performance Management goals for other employees.

The competencies that are laid out in this book encompass nearly every aspect of character in a professional organization. I found that it helped me tremendously in pigeon holing some of the behaviors, both positive and negative, that we see in the work place every day - some of which are hard to describe without this guide. It helped me in identifying difficult behaviors when meeting with my business partners/ customers and, more importantly, enabled us to determine what development was needed. It even aided me in identifying towering strengths that can become derailers because of overuse. This guide has been worth its weight in gold.

".....This book of development tips was designed for any motivated person with a need - at any level (manager, executive, individual contributor or citizen), for problems at work or in one's personal life..... THE 5,000 PLUS TIPS IN THIS BOOK WILL HELP ANYONE WHO RECOGNIZES SPECIFIC NEEDS and is motivated to do something about them. If that's you, read on....." [from the book of the introduction]

Lominger really does have the best leadership development system out there. I would never consider using anything else.

Not only a succinct guide for improvement in itself, many references to detailed research on improvement of individual traits. My Team members each have a copy. Works well with 360 degree review approach.
