Synopsis

The failure to grasp the basics of management often trips up even the most successful companies. With that in mind, management consultant Roger E. Allen uses A. A. Milne's beloved stories and characters to illustrate essential business principles, such as the establishment of clear objectives and strong leadership, the need for accurate information, and other neglected aspects of prudent management. Wonderfully readable and informative and sure to have the paperback appeal of Benjamin Hoff's The Tao of Pooh, Winnie-the-Pooh on Management is a must-read for anyone seeking to build their business skills but reluctant to become mired in an unnecessarily complex tome.

Goodreads review by Emmi on December 10, 2022

Tässä kirjassa yhdistyi tiukka faktateksti ja suloiset Puolen Hehtaarin metsän asukkaat melko autenttisessa olemuksessaan. Mistä pidin? Pidin siitä, kuinka kirjaa lukiessa oppi ikään kuin varkain, sillä teksti oli helposti luettavaa ja ymmärrettävää. Hauskat tarinat hahmojen kommelluksista tukivat fa......more

Goodreads review by Landon on January 24, 2022

This is a short book that simplifies the idea of management and leaderships. It’s principles are based on Winnie the Pooh stories, which make it easier to understand and relate to. While it is an older book, it’s lessons are still valuable.......more
