Morgan, who for nearly three decades led the high-tech powerhouse Applied Materials Inc. to both financial success and to the designation as one of America’s most admired companies and best places to work, provides a simple, straightforward set of principles and tips that he says can help anyone be a better manager.

Rich in stories and practical examples, it’s a must-read for those seeking a timeless and proven management manual.
