I am putting to together an information pack for internal staff, and want to include a section on the 'Role of the Manager'. Does anyone know of a book or other source which they would recommend, thatI could use to research the topic.
Many thanks
Ben

The Successful Manager’s Handbook
I would strongly recommend The Successful Manager’s Handbook. This is published by Personnel Decisions International and facilitates both in-depth reading and top tips pages.
The process of managing
Ben -If you will send me an e-mail message, I would be pleased to forward you a four page summary of the managing process that will be included in a book that I am currently preparing, directed at first-time managers. I have used it in dealing with business classes at the college where I teach and it seems to be helpful.
Leadership in Management
Dear Ben
I have recently completed a working paper that looks at the role of leadership skills in management. It also extends to look at the role of a manager and includes an extensive bibliography on the subject. If you would like a copy please visit our web-site:

or telephone +44 (0)1989 760705
The title of the article is, ‘In Search of the Holy Grail: Leadership in Management’.
