Free (Kindle) Managing People & Performance [Business Management Advice]

[ATDrake]

Managing People & Performance: Fast Track to Success (Accelerate Your Career) by David Ross provides advice on how to do exactly what it says in the title, free courtesy of publisher FT Press.

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians). Will probably show up at B&N and drop later for the UK; for some reason Amazon UK has been lagging in freebie-izing the FT Press stuff by a day or two in recent weeks.
