Management f-Laws are simple yet very important truths about organizations that we might wish to deny, avoid or ignore. Devised by management guru Russell Ackoff, they're a more reliable guide to managers' everyday behaviour than the complex truths proposed by scientists, economists, politicians and philosophers.
This little red book (in many ways as radical and subversive as its famous look-alike) contains just 13 of Russ Ackoff's f-Laws, along with the full commentary and Sally Bibb's response.
They cover topics from achieving change to hiring consultants, from the legibility of a manager's handwriting to focus groups.
A Little Book of f-LAWS is available now and will whet your appetite for the full collection - Management f-LAWS: How Organizations Really Work - which is published in January 2007.
A Little Book of f-LAWS is the perfect pocket book - or present - for anyone who works in an organization.
