Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Essence of Managing Henry Mintzberg appreciates that managers are busy people. So he has taken his classic book Managing, done some updating, and distilled its essence into a lean 176 pages of text. The essence of the book remains the same: what Mintzberg learned from observing twenty-nine managers in settings ranging from a refugee camp to a symphony orchestra. Simply Managing considers the intense dynamics of this job as well as its inescapable conundrums, for example: * How is anyone supposed to think, let alone think ahead, in this frenetic job? * Are leaders really more important than managers? * Where has all the judgment gone? * Is email destroying management practice? * How can managers connect when their job disconnects them from what they are managing?

Hardback. Condition: Very Good. In Managers, Not MBAs, Henry Mintzberg offers a sweeping critique of how managers are educated and how management, as a result, is practiced, making thoughtful--and controversial--recommendations for reforming both. Management, Mintzberg writes, is a practice that blends a great deal of craft (experience) with a certain amount of art (insight) and some science (analysis). Because conventional MBA programs are designed almost exclusively for young people with little managerial experience, and hence little art and no craft to draw upon, the programs overemphasize science, in the form of analysis and technique. Graduates leave with a distorted impression that management consists entirely of applying formulas to situations, which has had a corrupting, dehumanizing effect not just on the practice of management but also on our organizations and our social institutions. Turning to how managers should be developed, Mintzberg describes a set of innovative programs designed to address these shortcomings: the International Masters in Practicing Management (IMPM). Finally, he outlines how business schools can transform themselves to become true schools of management. Managers, Not MBAs presents the kind of bold, iconoclastic thinking readers have come to expect from the man Fast Company magazine called one of the most original minds in management.…
