It is likely reasonable to deem The One Minute Manager as a classic among management books. The obvious theme is managing people and employees, but the cover promises ways to simplify one's life, get more done and be less stressed. Along these lines, the authors have penned several other tomes including The One Minute Father/Mother, The One Minute Sales Person and others.The One Minute Manager emphasizes human dynamics and managing people as a means of achieving results. It might seem foreign or simplistic to some who espouse technology over people, blame employees first due to a preference for a top-down culture, care more for corporations than people, and ironically end up serving neither or those whose books and programs are not served by conceding to the fundamentals, but that highlights the need for the book even more.At first, the notion might seem absurd or a stretch, but the book is not a gimmick.

有理由将一分钟经理视为管理书籍中的经典之作。显而易见的主题是管理人员和员工，但封面承诺了简化生活、完成更多工作和减轻压力的方法。按照这一思路，作者还写了几本其他的大部头，包括《一分钟的父亲/母亲》、《一分钟的销售人员》等。一分钟的经理强调人的能动性和管理人是取得成果的一种手段。对于一些人来说，这似乎是异国情调或过于简单化的，他们支持技术而不是人，首先因为偏爱自上而下的文化而责怪员工，更关心公司而不是人，讽刺的是，他们最终既不为任何人服务，也不为那些书籍和课程不符合基本原则的人服务，但这更突出了对这本书的需要。起初，这个概念可能看起来很荒谬或有点夸张，但这本书并不是一个噱头。
