Dim Sum for Managers: Advice and Ideas for the Hungry Mind

Shall we get together for dim sum? Tapas? Sushi? Meze? Many cultures, it seems, have the same concept: a range of dishes offered in small helpings, each with its individual taste, which taken as a whole make a substantial meal. This book, by a world-renowned business psychologist, offers 80 concise bites of management advice and wisdom. Just like dim sum dishes, each of the 80 chapters are different in content, but ultimately complement each other. Moreover, dim sum is a nourishing meal due to its variety. In the same way, managers need to be exposed to a variety of ideas, techniques and processes in order to handle the ever-changing work environment. Too much of anything is bad for you. Just as dim sum rejoices in variety and balance, this book argues the same must be true for managers in their approach to business.
