Review of 'The one minute manager' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Since I've read more recent books in the same vein, most of the advice from this book seemed dated. Having said that, I must comment that the authors don't waste words in making up mindless blather (like other books). The book propounds its 3 simple rules for managing people using a story device---a young man who is out to discover the management secrets of a good manager.

The book is really short---more like a long essay. It can be finished within 2 hours.
