A very nice book but it is theoretical more than practical. maybe it needs to talk about more examples or how to apply these rules in the real-life

This is a uni textbook, but a compelling and revelatory one. I learned a whole bunch of things about the fine art of management I wouldn't have considered in a million years. Of course, it's mostly arid reading.

I'm biased because this was an assigned book for a required course. However, much of the language in this book sounds like a Dilbert satire of management-speak.
