Manager Tools creates podcasts, conferences, training, and tools to help people become better managers. It was created by Mark Horstman and Michael Auzenne, two retired service members. Manager Tools emphasize "The Trinity" of One-on-Ones, Feedback, Coaching as the core concepts of good management practice. They also focus on individualized communication based on DISC profiles. Beyond that, their content runs the gamut of management-related content, including hiring, job-seeking, project management, and handling just about any manager-direct report interaction you can think of. # History I attended the third Manager Tools conference in San Antonio, which I believe was in 2007. I've been a member of the community since then. --- **Relates to**:
