Management is an all-pervasive domain. Management is everybody’s business. Drucker says that it is the ability to do the right things rather than doing things right that makes an executive, effective. Drucker opines that executives who do not manage themselves properly cannot be expected to properly manage others either. However, one needs to understand as to what is the span of this term called management. Management, as a word, may sound abstract unless it is prefixed or suffixed with a practice or a function at workplace viz., change management, people management, time management etc; And taking a cue from Drucker’s works, an effective executive today has no choice but to master the art of management in all the possible functions, personal as well as professional. One must understand as to what it means to be a normal and mature human being and what actually constitutes success. This book offers an anthology of works by experts in various functions/domains of management. It offers reviews of those celebrated books on management by various thought leaders. The book comprises the expert opinions and research findings of experts on various management functions like change, performance, leadership, ethics, governance, culture and managing oneself.
