    “Book Descriptions: The Essence of Managing

    Henry Mintzberg appreciates that managers are busy people. So he has taken his classic book Managing, done some updating, and distilled its essence into a lean 176 pages of text.

    The essence of the book remains the same: what Mintzberg learned from observing twenty-nine managers in settings ranging from a refugee camp to a symphony orchestra. Simply Managing considers the intense dynamics of this job as well as its inescapable conundrums, for example:

    • How is anyone supposed to think, let alone think ahead, in this frenetic job?
    • Are leaders really more important than managers?
    • Where has all the judgment gone?
    • Is email destroying management practice?
    • How can managers connect when their job disconnects them from what they are managing?

    If you read only one book about managing, this should be it!”
