The demands made on managers in today's turbulent, uncertain and demanding world constantly increase. Even the most experienced manager needs to keep abreast of new developments and periodically brush up essential skills. This practical guide has been revised and updated to cover 50 specific areas of management in a clear and relevant way. Each is self-contained and can be dipped into, but all fall into the three broad categories that any manager needs to be competent in: managing people; managing activities; and managing and developing yourself. The book also takes account of recently developed approaches to management, and includes new thinking on familiar aspects of the manager's job. No book can tell managers what to do in every situation, but this edition provides guidelines to help build up managerial knowledge and skills.
