The Uncertain Art of Management

In The Uncertain Art of Management, Harry Onsman provides an in-depth and lively analysis of 32 issues that confuse, concern and exasperate managers at all levels. Management fads are debunked, gurus challenged, theories dissected, models put to the test and best practice explained. And to put it all in perspective, each chapter has commonsense guidelines to help managers 'cut through' when decisions need to be made.and the theory doesn't fit.

This book is both provocative and practical, with the content ranging from managing employees, increasing performance, structuring the organisation, developing competitive advantage and setting direction, through to leading with integrity and the future of management. Personal development and career survival and revival tips for managers are also covered.

The handbook approach and breadth of content make this book attractive from managers of all levels, from aspirant managers through to series executives and experienced leaders.
