How Management Works

Managing people and managing work are different skills, and How Management Works: The Concepts Visually Explained addresses both without resorting to textbook density. DK covers leadership styles, team building, delegation, communication, motivation, decision-making, organisational culture, productivity and strategy, giving each concept a graphic treatment that shows how the parts relate. Examples are drawn from ordinary working situations, so a reader can map an idea onto a team they already run. The book functions as an introduction for someone new to a management role and as a quick reference when a specific problem comes up. A quick rundown: • Leadership, delegation, motivation and culture handled as separate topics • Diagrams showing relationships rather than lists of definitions • Examples grounded in everyday workplace situations • Usable both as an introduction and as a reference to dip into Aimed at new managers, business students, entrepreneurs and professionals moving into team leadership, published by DK and stocked by Boipoka.
