Oxygen Google project began with a fundamental question raised by the leaders in the 2000s: what managers are important? The issue has generated a multi-year project, which eventually led to a comprehensive program around eight key management attributes designed to help Google employees to become better managers. In November 2012, the program had been in place for several years, and the company could point to a statistically significant improvement in the efficiency and performance of management. Now leaders are wondering how Google could build on the success of this project, senior executives, teams and other groups extends while striving to create truly amazing managers?
