"I don't manage anyone in my job, but I have a feeling that if I did, I would re-read this book closely and refer to it often.
A couple months back, frustrated by some management issues, I picked it up at the career center at work on a whim. I figured I'd flip through it, find the same old trite respect-your-colleagues suggestions, and return it within a day or two. To my surprise, I eventually made my way through the whole thing, a couple chapters at a time while at work. I even took notes on the darn thing -- that's how you can tell it had some application to my life!
The main things it got me thinking about were 1) what a good manager is/does, particularly when working with a team of "professionals" and 2) what you can do to be a good team member and leader, even if your manager is an incompetent sack of potato skins. I'm sure it's pretty basic stuff, but to someone with relatively little experience, it had plenty of useful suggestions and ideas for improving collaboration and morale and all those good things companies like. Woo.
Worth a read if you're new to managing and want to improve, have managed for a while and want a quick self-evaluation of how you're doing, or if you don't manage anyone but want to assure yourself that you could do a better job than your lazy troll-faced manager, just by reading a book. (You totally could.)"
