The one thing you need to know about great managing, great leading, and sustained individual success

In The One Thing You Need to Know, bestselling author Marcus Buckingham reveals the central qualities that lie at the core of great managing, great leadership and great careers.

Drawing on a wide body of research, including extensive in-depth interviews with prominent figures such as Tesco’s Sir Terry Leahy and former chief inspector of prisons Lord Ramsbotham, Buckingham reveals that at the heart of each quality lies a controlling insight.
