5.0 out of 5 stars
An informative, entertaining review of effective management.,
By A.Bulkley (ABson@aol.com) (Northampton, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maximum Leadership: The World's Leading Ceo's Share Their Five Strategies for Success (Hardcover)
The authors present an interesting, thoroughly researched summary of effective management styles in practice. The interviews are personal and the individuals interviewed are not only successful, but fascinating.The authors' use of humor and gentle irony lends an amusing tone to the voice of this book, which is pretty rare in business tomes. I recommend Maximum Leadership to anyone in business school, or for "light" professional reading...it is easy to put down and pick up again. Even those of us who don't wear business suits can apply most of the principles to our interactions with associates and family.
I did wonder, however, after absorbing the authors' summary of the five effective management styles...what other styles could there be? Management by cattle prod? by hypnosis? by bribery? I didn't waste too much time pondering this: given the credentials of the authors, I'm sure they would know.
Makes a good professional gift, too.
