About this title

Synopsis

Aims to show how combining proven under-fire management methods with technical training can make for a better, more effective manager. The reader is shown why management fads and quick fix remedies don't work, by seeing how they pale in comparison to six fundamental guidelines: profit fixation, technical literacy, change dynamics insight, policy and procedure comprehension, decision theory knowledge, and character duality.
