Management Intelligence

Sense and Nonsense for the Successful Manager

About this book

Adrian Furnham takes a sideways glance at management in this book of short essays. The essays are like tablets: to be taken a few at a time.They are designed to cure hangovers, reduce blood pressure and lighten the mood.They are also meant to be prophylactics against managerial madness. Take two, then call Adrian in the morning.
