The New Manager

Steve Proctor writes from a unique perspective; he has been actively and creatively involved in the science - and the art - of corporate management for forty years, and he has distilled a compendium of practical wisdom from his wealth of experience.;All those involved on the practice of business management will be sure to recognise many of the situations and dilemmas which Proctor lays out for the reader with an elegant precision. Proctor is aware of the human dimension of the corporate entity, and he gives a remarkable history of attitudes to management and how they have changed from the 1960s to the present day.;The narrative is illumunated with exceptionally apt case histories, and Proctor presents almost every situation with which the manager, novice or experienced, can be presented. He emphasises the need for continual, constructive and dynamic change to preserve the life and the vigour of the corporate structure and the health and well being, not only of the manager, but of the company.
