5.0 out of 5 stars Readable papers on broad topics in management, July 25, 2004
Whether you're just entering people management or have been doing it for years, this book grabs a selection of readable papers on a variety of topics from compensation to handling 'poor performers' to more effective (but non-manipulative!) means of persuasion.

Especially interesting were the two articles on the performance of individuals and the messages -- both explicit and implicit -- that managers give to their reports and how they affect performance. You should definitely give them a read if you think you have an average to poor performer that you're actively working with right now.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing., May 17, 2005
I regularly read great articles from the subscription program of HBR and rely on its contents for great insight into today's business environment.

Unfortunately, the HBR book series make a poor comparison. I have even wonder if HBR is recycling unused, or rejected submissions for these books.

I bought Managing People, Brand managment and Marketing and stopped reading each after just two articles. They were just all a waste of time.

5.0 out of 5 stars HBR Managing People, April 5, 2000
By Thuy le (Austin, TX USA) - See all my reviews
Definitely one of the better books in the series. Discussion of common corporate issues. Provides good solutions. I've read 4 in the series and like this one the most.
