They Shoot Managers, Don't They?: Managing Yourself and Leading Others in a Changing World

I am interviewing next week for my first management position after being a High School teacher for 11 years. I enjoyed the book and found a lot of valuable material. I was also able to see many of the priciples and suggestions in the book modeled by the better administrators at my school.There is a lot of business-oriented material in the book that won't necessarily apply to my new (prospective) position as an outdoor-science school Program Director. Still it may be valuable some day and the examples served to clarify the material presented.The book was a fast read and I made checkmarks in the margin so that I can review the material. I read it mainly to help me come up with ways I would handle situations that may be posed to me as part of my interview, and I think that it served this purpose well.
