While this book isn't available yet in the US, I bought it in the UK and love it. It isn't the kind of book you read cover to cover; rather, it's an easy-to-use resource. Dealing with change? Looking to understand what motivates people? Whatever your situation, you can get an overview of the top management theories and how to apply them. Best of all, the overviews are presented using everyday terms. It's great having these quick snapshots assembled together in one place.

El libro este bien para los que ya tienen conocimientos para afianzar. Para los novatos es una buena introducción, sobre la que luego desarrollar las áreas con más detalle. Recomendado

Great layout and design. A brilliant, focussed, reminder of many management strategies. Ideal for my neurodivergent mind to just dip in and out to find what i need.

This Book was recommended on my course and its a great read to get familiar with management theories and how and why they work. It's practical, an easy read, provides clear insights and will introduce or re-introduce you to some familiar terms and names that you've probably heard before (in work based courses). It's worth the money and much cheaper than many text books too!

I'm doing a Chartered Management Degree Apprenticeship (CMDA) and this is like the bible to me at the moment. If you just need the high level theory with some context its fab and will get you through most of your assignments. You can also use this to look at your own style of managing and leading to get ideas of things you may want to try to develop and build on for yourself. I think this book is genuinely a must for new and existing leaders and those who are studying leadership theory

It's a bit of an exaggeration to say the book contains all management theory, but it is REALLY comprehensive. Content wise it is has breadth rather than depth, but this makes it so useful for someone new to management or a student. I brought it to flick through to remind me how much I've forgotten!
