Managing

This landmark book by one of the world's leading business thinkers is about managing, pure if not simple. It tackles the big questions managers everywhere face, such as: * *How is anyone supposed to think, let alone think ahead, in this frenetic job? *Are leaders really more important than managers? *Is email destroying management practice? *Are managers the only ones who can, or should, manage? *How are managers supposed to connect when the very nature of their job disconnects them from what they are managing? *How can you manage it when you can't reliably measure it? MANAGING MAKES SENSE OF WHAT MIGHT BE THE WORLD'S MOST IMORTANT JOB.
