Rezension zu „Management Stripped Bare “
Controversial...a sight more readable than most management textbooks. The Times Owen has seen some rum things and most of them turn up in this book...the comments are spot on. The Sunday Times Witty, scathing and genuinely funny...well worth the money. Personnel Today
