Managers Not MBAs : A Hard Look at the Soft Practice of Managing and Management Development (Large Print 16pt), Volume 2

Some years ago, the head of a prominent American Business School claimed that ''If I wasn't the dean of this school, I'd be writing a book on the bankruptcy on American management education.'' Henry Mintzberg is not the dean of a business school. He is Cleghorn Professor of Management Studies at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. He was named Distinguished Scholar for the Year 2000 by the Academy of Management, and won its George R. Terry Award for the best book of 1995 (The Rise and Fall of Strategic Planning). Two of his articles in the Harvard Business Review have won McKinsey prizes. He has served as President of the Strategic Management Society, is an elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada (the first from a management faculty), and has been named an Officer of the Order of Canada. Mintzberg is the author of 12 books, including The Nature of Managerial Work, Mintzberg on Management, Strategy Safari, and Why I Hate Flying. For more information,
