Management Readings

http://managingleadership.com/blog/management-readings/  ...please visit this site to get a beautiful insight into the subject called management :  Following is a list of books that I believe anyone who is serious about being a good manager – at any level – should read and consider carefully. There is no natural bent to being a good manager – no instinct, no inherent talent. When we think we see those characteristics in people, it is really the manifestation in particular circumstances of careful and deep preparation. Begin yours with these readings. This is a work in progress and will be updated periodically with new recollections and new readings. Eventually, all of these books will be reviewed on the main pages of this site; this will be indicated below each entry with a link to the review. You can purchase most of these books from Amazon.com by clicking on the title. Please stop by frequently, and let us know what you think – and what you recommend. — Adair, John (19

Is an MBA degree worth pursuing ?

This is a subject which often comes up in the minds of those planning to take up the programme . I must say GradSchools.com has taken a fairly unbiased approach to the same and given a prospective student a nice overview about it below :-  (mbaprogramsinnewyork.org) MBAs have always been considered sure-fire investments, much like owning a house. But now that the United States economy is shifting in a direction it hasn’t seen in a while, the actual worth of an MBA these days is up for debate. If you research the worth of an MBA online you will find that the lines are divided, particularly when it comes to one of the latest buzzwords in the field—ROI. ROI, or “Return on Investment,” is usually related to gauging the worth of products or services in the business world. But ROI is being applied to the MBA degree itself more and more these days, making the decision about enrolling in an   MBA program exponentially difficult. http://www.gradschools.com/article-detail/mba-worth-pursuin
