Recensioner i media

′In this book Robin Wensley applies his extensive experience and wisdom in maping four key strands of the managerial process – an interrogative approach of asking key questions, being critical in thinking about our thinking, learning how to organize for both central command and local agility, and appreciating evidence-based management in context specific situations.  Through these four strands Wensley provides a treasury of "practical wisdom" that adds to  "common sense" in important and insightful ways′
