Supervision Today!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I actually had fun reading this book. The concepts are presented in a clear manner with many cases discussed that actually helps apply what you are learning. I also enjoyed it visually with great graphics and at the end of each chapter there are crosswords!!! Overall, it's a great read - even if you're not a supervisor or in an administrative role.
Contemporary college text for basic supervision/management theory
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
CSULB text for a vocational teaching credential- BA in Professional Studies. It is well written, easy to read and offers some recent insights into management theory compared to some of the more dated resources you may expect in a management class. 'Supervision Today!' includes chapter summaries as well as written assignments that allow the reader to explore both their own experiences as well as the technical material offered within. I am not aware if a student manual is available, or DVD accessories as we were not required to purchase anything else for the class.
Excellent Resource

This book was enjoyable to read, surprisingly enough, for a text book. I have referred back to this text book on numerous occasions. The text is timely and relevant,
A must read for any supervisor or mid level manager
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is by far and away the best book on supervision that I have ever read. I have used this book extensively to train first line supervisors and mid level managers in Eastern Europe to develop their management skills. The book effectively condenses the management courses I took during a 2 year MBA program into a well-organized manual. The book is easy to read, to the point, and replete with examples. It captures the essential concepts on the margins of each page and provides a review at the end of the chapter. Moreover, it offers case studies and self-assessment tests to reinforce concepts. This book is an excellent resource for private study, professional programs and universities. My only regret is that this text or its companion, "Management Today" were not utilized in any of my undergraduate or graduate management courses.
