Why Management Doesn't Work - and What to Do About It
More than ten years after his first bestselling book, 'The E Myth', changed the lives of hundreds of thousands of small-business owners, Michael Gerber - entrepreneur, author and speaker extraordinaire - fires the next salvo in his highly successful E-Myth Revolution. Drawing on lessons learned from working with more than 15,000 small, medium size and very large organisations, Gerber has discovered the truth behind why management doesn't work - and what to do about it. Unearthing the arbitrary origins of commonly held doctrines such as the omniscience of the leader and the most widely embraced myth of all - that we are able to manage anyone or anything other than ourselves - this book offers a fresh, provocative alternative to management as we know it. It explores why every manager must take charge of his own life, reconcile his own personal vision with that of the organization and develop an entrepreneurial mind-set to achieve true success.
