About this title

Synopsis

This updated version of the highly successful Manager's Guide to Self Development builds on the increasing emphasis on self development as well as the way forward for managers. It offers the manager an effective, lively and practical strategy for understanding a programme of self development. The book is divided into two parts - the first outlines the authors' philosophy and method and uses some simple diagnostic tests to help the reader discover their strengths and weaknesses. Based on this understanding of needs, the second part of the book takes the manager through eleven key qualities, essential for successful management, in 49 practical exercises. The exercises have now been updated in range to cover more issues in communication and working in teams.
