Description
The chapter titles of this book are tattoos. They are a compendium of principles and rules tested by years of practice from a successful manager—his everyday and organizational experience. These are simple and vivid stories about how and why you need to run things if you want to achieve success. Behind each of these chapters are meaningful actions: someone’s pain, torments, joys, successful and unsuccessful experience, dismissals, and leadership—and most importantly, the right result.
