And do you need an accessible guide to improving yourself, and your business/organisation? Whatever your current role, this book can develop you, and your business/organisation. "Awful Management" is the author's humorous 50 year journey from labourer to plc Chairman. This is 50 years personal development and business experience - in an afternoon's read! Pulitzer Prize nominee, O. Kay Jackson, says of "Awful Management..". "Most 'How to manage a business' books quickly find their place at my bedside to combat insomnia. Three pages in and I'm out like a light. "Awful Management" is the notable exception! By showing the downside inherent in poor management the book enlightens toward the good. Witty, interesting, thought provoking, challenging and inspiring, it stands as the new leader in its genre. Read it, directors and direct better. Read it, Managers, and manage better. Read it, employees, and develop quicker. Read it students, in preparation for the work place. Read it for the chuckles or the guidance, but without a doubt, read it!"
