4.0 out of 5 stars A long read, but time well spent., November 14, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Management of Organizational Behavior: Utilizing Human Resources (7th Edition) (Paperback)

I read this book because I am a big fan of Ken Blanchard and I was not let down. I could only take the book in small doses, taking over a month to read. However, situational selling to me was like a discovery, really opening my eyes to seeing the workplace and interrelationships much differently. I recommend this book to those who have the staying power of a long textbook type book.
