As a manager, you have the opportunity to inspire those under your purview to the point where they feel privileged to have you as their leader. It may be a lot of work to get there, but it can be done. In Managing through the Entrepreneurial Fog, author Tim Koprowski Sr. addresses the necessary steps for successfully managing people toward a common goal. It begins by delving into the world of management by presenting a new philosophy called “Play by the Rules.” Sharing anecdotes that give the rationale behind its foundation, Koprowski describes a unique and complete approach to managing people based on twenty-three key concepts. He then discusses how this philosophy was used to strengthen the foundation on which a start-up company was built. He traces the story of a software company for the healthcare industry that began with virtually nothing and later became a formidable force for well-established companies to contend with. Providing candid accounts of the various challenges the business faced, Koprowski explains how the concepts from “Play by the Rules” played an integral role in examining the company’s failures and turning them into successes. A practical tutorial for potential, current, and new managers, Managing through the Entrepreneurial Fog illustrates the application of an effective management philosophy put into practice in the workplace.
