Description
"Henry Mintzberg's views are a breath of fresh air which can only encourage the good guys." The Observer Tied up in knots by KPIs? Confused by core competencies?

The cutting edge views depicted in this book are controversially the opposite of what is often held up as the truth in management. Management? Its Not What you Think! brings readers an unusual mix of perspectives to help stimulate more creative management thinking and more enjoyable, challenging and more productive ways to lead their teams. This is a book readers can dip into, a book they can savour, a book that won’t fail to get them reflecting on what management really is…
