Going through old books on my bookshelf. Read this while getting my doctorate in business. It’s a good read and includes what seems like simple advice, but is really strong business advice for anyone working in business today. For some people, managing people is difficult because they have a strong personality and they push their ideas on people instead of being a leader that others will easily follow. This book is for them. For some, management comes easily and they instinctively know how to lead. This book is not for them. :-)

GMP as your beacon in life

GMP is a great book with not only the management philosophy but the tool kit required to implement it. It is indeed about cooperating and collective intelligence for achieving common goals….the greatest strength of the homo-sapien.

Its a must have for every managers. And if you re not one, at least you'll get a lot of insights on how effective and efficient management system should be. Basically everything that gets rewarded gets done. It is even applicable to personal relationships ( yep no kidding, its the same system all along). I have yet found anybody who does not approve of this book being one of the best management books around. Definitely a must read

I read this book during early years of my career (i.e. few decades ago), but it made a huge impression on me and my thinking about management principles. The book is tiny, but its size masks the to-the-point knowledge and experiences distilled into simple words.

This book is perhaps one of the best management books I have read. I have given it to those I have trained and sent on to careers in managementt and supervising people.

One of the best, straight to the point management books you will read. Changed my approach, and life as a manager.
