Technimanagement: The Human Side of the Technical Organization [Facsimile]
Editorial Reviews
The publisher, Prentice-Hall ECS Professional
Technical organizations are different, and anyone who tries to manage them without understanding those differences will fail. Most managers will need to change not just their own approach, but their entire organization's. Here's the good news: the necessary techniques are grounded firmly in human nature, and it is possible to build a technical environment that's not only productive but also healthy and enjoyable. In Technimanagement, Brown synthesizes the best thinking in technical management, and shows what works and what doesn't in Theory Y, Theory X, The Peter Principle, TQM, Deming's 14 Obligations of Management, and other approaches. Best of all, Brown outlines a step- by-step transition strategy that offers immediate payoffs and leads to long-term change that's more than skin deep.
