Key Management Models: The 60+ Models Every Manager Needs to Know (Financial Times) 2nd Edition

The models from this book are straightforward. I have used these models for essays, presentations, and case study competitions. The book is well organized and tells you everything you need to know about each model. I doubt you can find a book that is better at spoon feeding you all the cool new models you can learn as well as how to apply them to everyday scenarios.

I use this book to give me ideas on various frameworks that I could use at work. It also helps when I am trying to explain a concept to others in a succinct and logical way, and is great resource in presentations when I am backing up an idea or conclusion I'm making.

It 's getting another point of view in management that is relevant since most of the authors are practitioners in Europe. Here in my country, Philippines majority of our textbooks are authored by Americans. The book provides me another insights that have also a universal application. You should try to market your books here in the Philippines .

Provides frames for clearing and problem solving management issues. Very helpuful for understanding relevant information in several departments like marketing, sales, manufacturing, hr and finance. Excellent tools for communicating at high level.

Great quality

The book lists all models a consultant or manager needs to survive in meetings. The content is sufficient to be able to say: 'I heard about it'.If the models had been explained a bit longer (25% or so) it would have been sufficient to remember the models when you could apply them and move from 'heard about it' to 'I know a model that we could apply to this'.The book is strong in the explanation of the models, that were clear and useful. To my surprise in the few pages for each model the authors succeeded in giving a quite complete impression of the model.I found the book weaker in the parts that explain what kind of real world problems can be solved using the model.

I completed an MBA about 5 years ago, and found the most useful part of the learning was having a suite of models to use as a framework for thought, analysis and discussions. The models don't give you the answers. They are tools to help you find the right answers.I was looking for a book where I could refresh my memory about key models and their application, and came across this. It is a gem. It has three compelling features. Firstly, the models are logically sorted into groups eg Strategic, Tactical, Operational. Secondly, each model is described very clearly and concisely, structured as a summary, when to use it, how to use it, and a final constructive review of any limitations it may have. Finally, it is written so that it is accessible to anyone, so avoids jargon or unnecessary sophistication. One of the signs of greatness in my opinion is being able to describe complicated ideas simply, and it acheives this.It is a book that is worth flicking through regularly to trigger thoughts about current strategy and direction within an organisation. I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone involved in management.

I was looking for a book that contains the most used strategies and I found it. Although some strategies are not shown and listed, this book has indeed a lot of different strategies which are very helpful and useful. If more companies use more of those strategies, then we would have a lot more successful organisations in this world.
