To the book's credit, there are a few valuable points contained here but that is where the value ends. Having been a business management teacher and counsellor for the best part of my life, and having written a training manual on the subject which is still in use today, I feel comfortable in saying that what is contained in these few pages is not going to make you management material! You may pick up a few tips on how to improve your skills as a manager, but if you are planning to manage a business, this book certainly won't cut it!
One of the key reasons why businesses fail is not solely because of the lack of start up and working capital, it is because owners/managers do not possess sufficient basic business management skills. Those skills do not come from simply reading a book; they come from proper management training and a lifetime of hands-on experience. A future lawyer cannot sit down, read a book, and without any formal education be qualified for a memeber of the bar; nor can a would-be physician with no formal education, read a book and undertake his first operation! Why then, would anyone be so niave or gullible to think that reading an 111 page book would prepare you to be a manager... of anything?
Management, especially business management, takes know-how and experience. Believe me, my files are filled with "would-be wanna-be's" and "one minute managers" who thought formal management training was a waste of time and that experience would come in time. Unfortunately, time ran out. The reality of it is, they learned how to make every mistake in the book on their own money, or equally worse, on someone else's money! Now, not only do they not have a business, they are facing a future of financial ruin. There are some excellent books in existence that will help you to improve your management style, providing you have the basics to begin with, so save the money you would have spent on this one and invest in a quality,in-depth book.
(A negative review. MSL remarks.)
