Management Bye

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

There is the imaginary world of management and there is the real one. This book will show you the real techniques managers use to make their decisions. This book is about management techniques. When I say techniques, I do not mean techniques you get to learn in management schools. Leave those where they belong, in books. Managers around the world make their decisions based on certain techniques, skills, and habits that are the result of thousands of years of human experience. These techniques are passed down secretly from one generation to another. You never thought when your manager shouted at your face that he was actually using one of these techniques. Well, you were wrong. He was using management by Shouting. Moreover, did you ever hear that there was management by Eating or even Smoking? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is an example of management by Looking up: This is a famous technique. All you need to do is to look up at the sky, ceiling, or anywhere, it really doesnt matter. By looking up, you will find the answer to your problem. Sometimes you will find a couple of answers if somebody else is using the same technique at that same time. I trust that you will be able to recognize your answer. If in doubt, double click small toe, left foot. A window will open and somebody will throw something on your toe. CAUTION If you are in another country, you have to get a translator, since the answer will be provided in the local language. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, I have devoted a good part of my time to make thisresearch available to the world (two month I guess). In this book I have Identified fifty-nine techniques that are being widely used by managers. Here are some of them: Traveling/ Eating/ Sleeping/ Taking a bath/ Buying a cappuccino machine/ Saying what if/ Asking everybody for reports/ Delegating authority/Attending seminars/Re-engineering/ /Vision/ Leadership/Gut feeling/ Profit/ Chaos. So, it is now your decision. You can go on believing whatever you want Or you can take a look at the truth about management.
