Many lessons can be learned from managers in business and industry that are useful to people who administer schools or media programs. Despite organizational differences, the needed management skills are similar. This volume is the work of 12 authors who have drawn on personal experiences and extensive reviews of business literature to capture highly workable strategies for effective management in such areas as personnel, time, finances, technology, change, and communication. A good read that uses charts, vignettes, cartoons, and memorable quotations to emphasize key points.
