list for my direct reports.

Rating:

- Concise, pragmatic advice
Concise, pragmatic advice on management practices: goal setting, praise, reprimands. This book serves as a great reminder that you don't have to have a PhD, or read every tome on leadership and management to be successful - more often than not, little changes can make a significant impact. An easy read, and one worth revisiting every once in a while.

Rating:

- Good re-read. Always a good refresher course.
This book keeps management principles in its simplist form. I have given these books to many managers over the years to help them understand and learn the basic principles of management. A great read!!!!

- The orginal book changed my life
This book is about so much more than management. I applied the principles to all areas of my life years ago and what a difference it made.
