AMAZON CUSTOMER REVIEW: "A management book that's meant to be USED!!! This little book omits all the BS and jargon of textbooks and compresses the actual TOOLS for planning, process improvement, and quality control into just the information that you need to select and implement the appropriate management tools. Keep it in a desk drawer where it's handy to use, instead of on a bookshelf! I bought it for a class (in Project Management), but I USE it at work! It is NOT a book that will give you all the theory behind the methods, nor the history of how they were developed and have evolved. It SIMPLY (and that's the beauty of it) describes when, why, and how to use the variety of tools, and gives very helpful examples showing them in action. This ... book is worth more to me than most of my $100 textbooks combined - and it's one I'll keep and not resell." — By MagicSkip (Marriottsville, MD) Download a sample PDF to see inside
