Synopsis

When Bruce Hyland and Merle Yost asked some of America's leading business executives for their top ten rules of successful management, their responses centred not on high-powered financial or marketing strategies but on deeply human principles - basic laws of conduct that they found promoted healthy working relationships with fellow employees and consistent, productive, responsible business decisions. Based on those rules, "Reflections for Managers" presents 72 wise, witty maxims executives can read and profit from in just a few moments each day. Reminding ambitious managers just what matters and what doesn't in their day-to-day business conduct, these plainspoken adages comprise a collection of frank directives, healthy admonitions and revitalizing affirmations. Hyland and Yost follow each maxim with persuasive insights into its lasting value and then crystalize their points with a telling business story illustrating the idea in action. They conclude with candid, searching questions that ask executives on the go to stop and reflect on the maxim's enduring relevance to their personal and professional life.
