1. select the best people as a manager, you are only as good as the people on your team. give yourself a better chance to succeed by picking the best people from the start.
1. 挑选最优秀的成员作为管理者，只有团队成员优秀，才能表明你也优秀。从一开始就挑选最优秀的成员会使自己成功的机会更大一点。
2. be a motivator and build your team people do good work for the pay, or the prestige, or the recognition. they do bad work because they want to take it easyand still get paid. to motivate your people better, figure out what they want and how you can give that to them for doing what you want them to do.
2. 做个擅长鼓舞士气的人并构建自己的团队人们做好工作是为了得到报酬，或良好的名誉，或他人的认可。若他们的工作完成得不好，是因为他们既想轻松又想得到报酬。若要更有效地鼓舞你的成员，你需要找出他们想要什么，以及他们做了你期望的事情后，你能如何给予他们想要的奖励。
it is not enough that people are motivated to succeed at work. they have to work together as a team to accomplish the group’s objective. you have to show the members of the team that it benefits them personally.
在工作中，仅仅鼓舞成员还不足以迈向成功。他们必须团结在一起，共同实现团队目标。你必须让成员明白这能让他们每个人获益。
love is a strong motivator. parents, for instance, watch out for their children. money is another strong motivator. however, the strongest motivator available to a manager is self-esteem. the more the individual sees a benefit to his or her self-esteem from supporting the team, the more successful your team building efforts will be.
用爱感化是个有效的鼓励方式，就像父母精心照顾孩子那样。金钱是另一种有效的鼓励方式。然而，对于管理者来说，最有效并可行的方法是维护成员的自尊心。成员越能从团队工作中获得自尊心上的满足，你的团队构建得就越成功。
on the one hand, your people have to acknowledge that they are part of a team. you can reinforce this by holding team meetings, posting team news on the bulletin board or your intranet page, and tracking team performance against team goals.
一方面，你的成员必须承认自己是团队的一部分。你可以通过召开团队会议，以及在公告栏或你们的内网网页上张贴团队消息来强化这个观念，并比照团队目标跟进团队的工作情况。
on the other hand, they have to believe that the team is capable of producing more than the sum of its members. you have to make this readily apparent to them and clearly delineate the increased rewards they can achieve through teamwork.
另一方面，他们必须坚信团队合作可产生的成就比个人成就总和要多得多。你要让他们清楚地知道这一点，而且要清晰地表明他们通过团队合作能够获得更多报酬。
3. improve as a communicator communication may be the single most important skill of a manager. communication skills can be improved through practice. when you’re trying to get a point across to someone else you often think long and hard about what you want to say. that is the wrong way to go about it. instead of focusing on what you want to say to get your point across, you should focus on what you want the other person to hear.
3. 更好地与成员交流交流是管理者最重要的技能。你的交流技巧可以通过练习提高。当你努力让他人明白你的观点时，你经常对你想说的话冥思苦想很长时间，这种方法是错误的。你不必苦想如何表达以让他人明白你的观点，而应把注意力放到你希望他人听到什么意见上。
4. get better at managingresources, money, time, and scope
4. 提升管理资源、财务、时间以及项目范围的能力
● resources managing project resources frequently involves more than people management. the project manager must also manage the equipment used for the project and the material needed by the people.
● 资源管理项目资源通常不只是对人员的管理。项目经理还必须管理项目设备以及成员需要的材料。
● money to stay in business, a company has to make money. that means bringing money in the door and it means spending less than you bring in. depending on your function in the organization, you may have more influence on one area or the other, but you need to understand both. you can help your company, your employees, and yourself be getting better at managing the company’s money.
● 财务想要维持经营，公司必须能够赚钱。这就是说要给公司带来收入，并且收入要大于支出。根据你在公司里的职责，你可能在这个或那个领域中影响力更大一些，但你既要会赚钱，又要会花钱。你可以帮助公司、员工以及自己更好地管理公司的财务。
● time the one thing you will probably have less of at work than money is time. the better you get at managing time, yours and others, the more effective you will be as a manager.
● 时间在工作中，唯一比资金更短缺的恐怕就是时间了。越好地规划自己和他人的时间，你作为管理者的工作就越富有成效。
● scope the project scope is the definition of what the project is supposed to accomplish and the budget that has been created to achieve these objectives. it is absolutely imperative that any change to the scope of the project have a matching change in budget, either time or resources. if the budget is not adjusted, the smartproject manager will avoid the change in scope.
● 项目范围项目范围是指项目应该完成什么样的目标以及达成目标所制定的预算。任何项目范围的改动肯定会不可避免地带来相应预算的改变，无论是时间还是资源。如果预算没有调整，聪明的项目经理会避免在项目范围上做改动。
5. improve yourself don’t focus so hard on your people that you forget about yourself. identify the areas in which you are weak and improve them.
5. 完善自我不要过度关注你的成员以至于忘记完善自我。找出你不擅长的领域并提升相关技能。
