Managing For Dummies (For Dummies Series)

As a first time manager, I find myself coming back to this book for different concerns often. It's a great foundation to begin understanding this role

Work guide book for my grandson.

Easy to read, good definitions, and simple language make this book an adequate choice for those trying to enter management. There are a nice amount of buzz words so you can grab on to the lingo in your workplace. Read it from cover to cover and you'll know if you want to manage people or not, if you have the ability to recognize another's ability or if you're just a chump who should never inflict himself on anyone ever.

I was just promoted to Manager, and this book has been a very useful tool. It provides very easy to understand concepts and guides you on both basic and advanced managerial skills that you need to develop or improve in order to become a better manager. Almost every page that I read on it can be applied to my day to day activities as a manager. Managing for Dummies is a Manager's must have.

i am a new manager to be and after reading this book, it opens new angle for me to see how the work as manager should be. i used to be a worker, the book taugt me to shift my persepective from technical worker to people management.

I teach Management Essentials (like Intro to Management) and it's an excellent base resource. Very good for active managers as a reference.

Never found a managing book for my industry, Interior plant care and this is surely not it either. Way to much BS, just too wordy with out that much real info......

I've just begun to read this book and so far I've already come across several great ideas. Looking forwards to reading the entire book and reaping the benefits. I would definitely recommend this.
