Skills Development for Tomorrow’s managers

In its Ninth Edition, Developing Management Skills has become the standard in hands-on management learning. Designed for students of all skill levels and learning styles, the text allows students to apply knowledge to real-world situations, connect concepts to their own lives, and experience management theory in a tactile and engaging way.

Updated for tomorrow’s managers, this text features contemporary examples, new skill assessments and cases, updated research, and tangible, relevant goals for students to work toward. Focusing on ten essential skills for success in management, Developing Management Skills focuses on what managers actually “do,” transforming management concepts into practical, actionable techniques.

Students will gain hands-on practice applying management concepts with MyManagementLab. They’ll engage in real business situations with simulations, build their management skills by writing and talking about different management scenarios, have access to a videos and current events to help put concepts into perspective, and more.

Also available with MyManagementLab®

MyManagementLab is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to engage students and improve results. Within its structured environment, students practice what they learn, test their understanding, and pursue a personalized study plan that helps them better absorb course material and understand difficult concepts.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book but previous edition has all of the self-assessment tests
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2017

The only disappointing thing about the book is the previous edition of this book has all of the assessments available in the book itself without having to buy the access code. I find it ridiculousness that you have to buy an access code to take self-assessment tests that are available in the public domain. The book itself is well written and an easy read. The authors suggest some good practical ideas to help leaders.

To me, this book was more about communication and understanding people than anything else. If you study and apply the principles in this book, you will become a better people-person.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Buy Ebook, Kindle App is garbage for students
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2019

Do NOT get EBOOK unless you like failing. Cannot take notes with apple pencil or scroll efficiently.

It's unacceptable that the Kindle is app is still garbage and doesn't allow you to write on the ebook or quickly swipe vertically through the pages. In a engineering class these are essential.... For $60 , I would expect to be able to fully engage with the text, but that is impossible with this book as I can't use my apple pencil because Kindle app is incompetent. Amazon needs to hire some of those computer science interns to update this app and make it usable for students who need to write on the book in order to learn.
The built in note feature is garbage and a head ache to use, I recommend either buying the text copy or bootlegging a pdf. that actually lets you write on it. I'm against the bootlegging but the kindle's incompetence really leaves little choice.
It's a shame that software exists that I can put dog ears and a nose on my face instantly via a camera for FREE, but I can't write on a pdf. with an electronic pen for $60.00 = 8 hours minimum wage, which is what most buyers of this book are probably on.

Get it together Amazon!

Book arrived quickly and in perfect condition

Sometimes I haven’t been able to put it down - very interesting and clear and well laid out

Is referenced as reading material on Leadership in Engineering on CourseEra

I’m very glad I purchased the book as without it I would struggle to put any of this into practice .. the course references other material to support the basis of the book which generally makes great reading if you’re interested in the topic
