  In 53 self-contained units, the authors offer helpful hints on everything from assertiveness to absence control, from problem-solving to performance appraisal, from managing consultants to managing stress. The underlying aim is getting things done, but that involves learning how to manage yourself, other people, the employment relationship and organisational systems. In this book all these skills are fleshed out with explanations, check-lists, exercises and reading lists. The result is a book for every briefcase, for dipping into, a blend of research and business sense.
