Summary: Contains "generic management" basics, but pretty elementary
Comment: I purchased a couple books once I was promoted to manager. I felt as if my world was going to change dramatically and I needed some sources of information to help me through the transition. What I came to realize is there were two types of knowledge that I sought, one was details around project management and the other was overall leadership.
The basics of what it takes to be a manager and how you conduct yourself is what this book is all about. If you are new to having people work for you or new to leading, than this book may be an option for you. For me, it covered very rudimentary topics and didn't offer much guidance in the two areas I was seeking more depth. Another thing to note, there are strategies to project management and there are theories to leadership. This book covers basic aspects to conducting yourself as a "generic manager".
To sum it all up, this book is VERY BASIC and if you have any management/leadership experience at all, it will waste your time.

Summary: A Great Book
Comment: This book is an excellent choice for both the novice and experienced manager or supervisor. This large volume (864 pages) covers a broad range of topics that will help the seasoned manager refresh his or her memory and provide the beginner with a well-rounded set of skills. It is a well-written book which contains numerous color illustrations and graphics. It is, also an easy and enjoyable read and one of the best books that I have read on this subject. One of the most useful features of the book its organization. It is written in short sections so it that the chapters can be read as used as needed. The chapters are concise and could be used for a short training classes on a variety of topics.
