Practical and actionable tips for managers at any level. Charney’s straightforward advice helps improve leadership skills quickly, though it may be too simplistic for seasoned managers. Ideal for those looking for quick management strategies

[Jannie van Schalkwyk · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book serves as a helpful reference guide to several useful management concepts, presented in a list format. I’ll certainly refer back to some of the tips in the future. However, given that it was written in 2004, some of the advice feels outdated and doesn’t align with newer technologies.

Gillade jag när jag läste den tidigt 90-tal. Lite av en A-Ö-bok med saker att tänka på inom ledarskap och management. Dock har det säkert gjorts massor av bättre sen dess.
