About this title

Synopsis

Regardless of performance, many black managers face subtle, racially motivated opposition from above and below. Soul in Management helps managers navigate these tricky waters, covering misconceptions about race and corporate life, realities of office politics, mentoring, knowing your legal rights, and standards, networks, and the community.

Review

African American managers have become a significant force throughout the corporate world, in both white-owned companies and in those run by blacks. Nonetheless, Richard F. America and Bernard E. Anderson contend that many unique challenges still confront them. Soul in Management: How African American Managers Thrive in the Competitive Corporate Environment offers advice for handling the associated social and cultural realities of today's workplace, but emphasizes that talent and character remain the ultimate difference between failure and success.
