In Management in 10 Words he draws on his experience and expertise to pinpoint the ten vital attributes that make successful managers and underlie great organisations, explaining: - Why initial failure often leads to ultimate success. - Why profits stem from a company's values, not its day-to-day business. - Why competition should always be welcomed. - Why simplicity leads to innovation. - Why trust is the bedrock of effective leadership. The result is an inspiring, thoughtful and supremely practical guide that will prove invaluable to all managers in all types of organisation.
