- Book 4 of 69: DK Essential Managers
 
An understanding of what makes people perform and how to solve problems that affect performance in the workplace is key to exceptional management technique. All readers will find value in this book's priceless advice on subjects as diverse as greeting overseas business contacts, setting an agenda for a meeting, taking minutes, reorganizing the layout of an office, and holding a brainstorming session.
 
Fully recognizing that "cookie cutter" solutions simply don't work in today's complex professional world, Heller and Hindle offer options for each topic, allowing the reader to explore them through flowcharts and diagrams. In addition, self-evaluation forms help each individual reader assess their innate ability in each area, in order to focus their energies as they utilize the book. Well-chosen photographs illustrate situations and bring advice to life by demonstrating the personality types and situations described and ensuring that each lesson "clicks" for the reader, guaranteeing results after just one brisk reading.
The DK Essential Managers series covers a range of business and management topics and has sold more than two million copies worldwide. Each guide is clearly presented for ease of reference, with visual pointers, tips, and graphics.

Review
The emphasis is definitely on the practical, with real-life results always at the top of the agenda. To that end the text is punchy and to the point rather than rambling. Each chapter is clearly presented with plenty of tables, charts, checklists and self questionnaires to help you get the most from its content. Dotted around the pages you will find Power Tips--over 1200 of them in all-- designed to act as quick reference aids.
Some managers might only need to look at one or two of the areas covered in the book, and so Dorling Kindersley have published all 12 of the book's chapters individually in smaller pocketable handbooks. --Sandra Vogel
