Managing in the Gray: Five Timeless Questions for Resolving Your Toughest Problems at Work

HBR Press Book

Every manager makes tough calls. And the hardest decisions are the ”gray areas”—situations where you and your team have worked hard to find an answer and you still don't know what to do. Gray areas test your skills as a manager, your judgment, and even your humanity. How do you get these decisions right? Picking up where conventional tools of analysis leave off, this book provides powerful and practical tools for judgment in the form of five revealing questions. You can use the five-question framework on your own or with others on your team to help you cut through complexities, understand critical trade-offs, and develop workable solutions for even the grayest issues.
