As a leader, do you feel the need to "think outside the box" when you are stuck behind the 8-ball? As an ethical leader, are you capable of dealing with pressures and complications related to working with members of the opposite sex? Are you willing to set aside your ego and welcome women in the workforce? Do you feel adequately prepared to deal with disaster situations, while focusing on the business continuity and the bottom line? As a leader, do you understand the role and significance of trade unions, while realizing that they can help achieve corporate goals? Do you believe that we can all learn from the Japanese, in terms of getting a different perspective? Do you feel that you will benefit from a basic understanding of the principles underlying leadership and management concepts, instead of merely focusing on being a technician and undermining the importance of a managerial background? Do you realize the importance of effective leadership, ethics, teamwork, motivation and goal congruence? If so, then Management:Tidbits for the New Millennium is a must read!

"This book has few equals. Even though the author may not be as famous as some of his North American counterparts, he does draw your attention to important management concepts and begs to differ from conventional wisdom, in several instances. I like his approach to discussing the role of women in the workforce and the significance of trade unions in a volatile business environment." ---Mari-jane Sutton, a Management Consultant based in Toronto "Potent, with an eye on the bottom-line!" ---Mary Martija, a vivid reader of management books, 04/11/2008 Informative, precise handling of the important areas of management: teamwork, motivation, ethics, women, trade unions, Japanese approach, business upheavals and so on.
