The E-myth manager :why management doesn't work and what to do about it

by Michael E Gerber

The E-myth manager :why management doesn't work and what to do about it Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

From the author of the 350,000-copy phenomenon The E-Myth comes a radical departure from today's onslaught of management books: a simple, direct, and practical guide to a new business model of antimanagement management.

Does Management Really Work? In This Provocative new work, bestselling author Michael Gerber fires the next salvo in his highly successful E-Myth Revolution, proposing that the idea of management itself is the greatest myth of all. He shatters the eight deadly myths of management that undermine today's businesses and compellingly demonstrates why managers are inherently incapable of managing other people, and why, whenever we try to motivate or empower people, or manage events and results we can only fail. Maintaining that the secret of success for managers in companies large and small is in becoming entrepreneurial, The E-Myth Manager offers an invaluable model that can lead to the health and wealth of every business manager, as well as those who work for them.

Book News Annotation:

In this sequel to his bestseller The E-Myth, Gerber continues his argument that modern management is dysfunctional and operates from inherently flawed assumption that we can manage anyone or anything other than ourselves.
