Abstract

This is a guide to recognizing your own philosophy and ideas of management, using a range of self-development methods. It cultivates a healthy scepticism for accepted management theories and provides an evaluation of new management ideas and demonstrates how to customise them to suit your own needs. This is a topical theme for managers when organizations are encouraging self-development programmes through a combination of academic study, open learning, training programmes, mentoring and vocational qualifications.
