The failure to grasp the basics of management often trips up even the most successful companies. With that in mind, management consultant Roger E. Allen uses A. A. Milne's beloved stories and characters to illustrate essential business principles, such as the establishment of clear objectives and strong leadership, the need for accurate information, and other neglected aspects of prudent management. Wonderfully readable and informative and sure to have the paperback appeal of Benjamin Hoff's The Tao of Pooh, Winnie-the-Pooh on Management is a must-read for anyone seeking to build their business skills but reluctant to become mired in an unnecessarily complex tome.

      Management, as Allen reminds us, is a very serious subject. Unfortunately, though, his presentation of substantive issues-business purpose, managerial skills, motivation-is tenuous and underdeveloped; and his coverage of organizational theory is anemic, even when addressing the pivotal ideas of Peter Drucker, Theodore Levitt and Douglas MacGregor. Allen, a management consultant, selects A.A. Milne's classic characters to probe managerial functions in ``an unfamiliar context, which will allow us to think about them in a new way.'' But his ``new way'' fails to inspire. 75,000 first printing; Fortune Book Club and QPB selections; published simultaneously on Penguin-Highbridge Audio.
