Speak from position of substantial wisdom

It is a useful addition to any bookshelf. Anybody starts his or her career in management, they will be able to better understand where they fit in an organization, how to best communicate with colleagues and improve their own knowledge and effectiveness. The book speaks about the specific and the background. Background provides a very useful introduction in the functioning and the different roles that exist within an organization. The area of focus is in particular, on developing personal skills, such as presentations or reading effectiveness. The editors and writers of this book are experts in their particular fields and are able to speak from position of substantial wisdom. Yet, the book remains lucid to read and, in usual Dorling Kindersley style, is brilliantly illustrated all through.Vivek Dixit,Houston
