Management Basics
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book contains several helpful tips and guidelines for the librarian (or any professional) who is accepting their first role as supervisor. New supervisors are often too busy to pour over the time-honored management texts in order to learn the skills necessary to do their job effectively. This 117-page book provides practical information on each and every page. All aspects of supervision are covered in ten concise chapters, dealing with everything from interviewing to conducting effective meetings. A library professional with first hand knowledge of library middle management authored each chapter. The authors are primarily from the academic setting but their expertise ranges from library directors to head librarians of personnel and circulation.This time tested guide is in its third edition and has added new chapters on time management, conflict resolution, and diversity in the workplace. The inclusion of checklists and current additional readings at the end of each chapter makes this handbook an especially helpful resource for any manager to have on his/her office shelves.
