The Winning Manager: Timeless Principles for Corporate Success

Autor Walter Vieira
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 iun 2014
This is not a standard book on management. It does not attempt to take the reader through the process of planning, forecasting, organising, delegating, motivating, monitoring, controlling and communicating in a sequential order, as in Fayol's wheel of managerial functions. Instead, it goes 'beneath the skin' of management as it were, to discuss issues that are not normally dealt with either in speech or in writing.

Recenzii

“[This book] should be read by all aspiring managers, as well as experienced managers, to get a picture of the real world of commerce and industry. Walter covers a wide spectrum of many practical questions and situations, that academicians generally ignore in their rarefied teaching. 

A job seeker who is ready to enter the business world needs to learn the ropes of job hunting, creating value and moving up the ladder of management. The person needs a full understanding of the business challenges and opportunities he or she will face. Those in middle or senior management have other and sometimes more complex challenges, as they move towards the CEO position or towards retirement.

Let Walter be your guide, as you seek to enjoy a rich and rewarding career in management, with his central theme of high performance in tandem with high ethical standards.”
