About this book
This book is about business as it is – not as it should be.
Managers face the same problems all over the world. They are confronted with a host of horrors – bad meetings, boring presentations, difficult bosses, political intrigue, insufficient staff, unreasonable goals, inadequate resources and constant change – and somehow they are meant to make sense of it all. But they don’t teach you how to do this in business school. Business schools provide a core of business knowledge, but no skills.
In the real world managers learn from experience. They learn from the successes and failures of others – as well as their own. And most managers construct a model of how they think their world works and how they can survive it.
This is where Management Stripped Bare comes in. Jo Owen has produced an essential tool for managers based on 20 years of working with some of the best, and worst, businesses in the world. He has mapped out which approaches consistently work, and which do not.
Jo Owen’s guide deals with over 150 universal management challenges. Each challenge is described, and successful and unsuccessful responses are illustrated with real case examples.
