The Bluffer's Guide To Management
Good management
The secret of good management is avoiding bad management. Similarly, the test of good managers is that they cannot be observed or remembered for the deviations and idiosyncrasies which make bad managers so memorable.
Real management
The acid test of the true manager under pressure is that he or she is the only one not immediately doing something. The real manager is thinking before acting. Even if it's only a bluff.
Proper management
If you devote even a fragment of the working day to some thought about managing properly you can rise above the norm.
Right management
Good management is not necessarily about flair or excellence. It may often be about getting things right more than 90 per cent of the time, by avoiding the crass errors of your contemporaries.
Simple management
Good managers have every right to insist that presentations of all kinds, within and without the organization, be presented in words of few syllables which a child of four could understand.

Piece of ART !!
a very intensive fun meal about management. The book suggests many other books in the third quarter, which I myself find very informative and to the point. I highly recommend it for all starters & professionals in management... you may start with the Author description at the last page. It is really hilarious!
