- Summary:
-
The New High-Tech Manager: Six Rules for Success in Changing Times teaches readers how combining proven-under-fire management methods with their previous technical training can make them better, more effective leaders. It proves that fad techniques and "quick fix" remedies just don't work, by comparing them to six solid management guidelines: profit fixation, technical literacy, change dynamics insight, policy and procedure comprehension, decision theory knowledge, and character duality.
