These are some of the titles I have found helpful in my search to improve my skills in managing the our most precious resource - people. This is by no means the complete list, I have read many more management instruction specific books, however I have found over the years most are derivative and usually designed to package a ’new’ four letter acronym process which incompetent managers adopt to try to improve their performance. Hence the choices below.
I use Booktopia for all my buying.
