 Very disappointing. May 18, 2005

I regularly read great articles from the subscription program of HBR and rely on its contents for great insight into today's business environment.
Unfortunately, the HBR book series make a poor comparison. I have even wonder if HBR is recycling unused, or rejected submissions for these books.
I bought Managing People, Brand managment and Marketing and stopped reading each after just two articles. They were just all a waste of time.
 Readable papers on broad topics in management July 25, 2004

Whether you're just entering people management or have been doing it for years, this book grabs a selection of readable papers on a variety of topics from compensation to handling 'poor performers' to more effective (but non-manipulative!) means of persuasion.
Especially interesting were the two articles on the performance of individuals and the messages -- both explicit and implicit -- that managers give to their reports and how they affect performance. You should definitely give them a read if you think you have an average to poor performer that you're actively working with right now.

Definitely one of the better books in the series. Discussion of common corporate issues. Provides good solutions. I've read 4 in the series and like this one the most.
