Spurs began the season in fine style, defeating Liverpool at White Hart Lane thanks to a Benoit Assou-Ekotto thunderbolt and Sebastien Bassong’s second-half winner.
This was followed by a Jermain Defoe masterclass away at Hull City, where the England forward’s hat-trick was the highlight of a comprehensive 5-1 triumph.
Defoe’s scoring form continued as he grabbed the equaliser in the next game, away at West Ham United, with Redknapp’s side coming from behind to win courtesy of Aaron Lennon’s late winner.
Peter Crouch’s opener was cancelled out by a close-range Lee Bowyer effort before the diminutive winger’s late clincher.
"It's always nice to get the Manager of the Month award, but it's all about the players and the staff. They've all worked hard for me so it's a team effort," said Redknapp.
"He [Defoe] looks, strong, quick, more powerful than he has in the past and it's paying dividends for him.
"Everytime the ball arrives to him anywhere around the box he looks like he's going to score.
"It's a nice feeling to have as a manager."
The decision was made by the Barclays Awards Panel, which includes representatives from football’s governing bodies, the media and fans.
