Supervisory Management: The Art of Empowering and Developing People

by Donald C. Mosley

Supervisory Management blends skill-building techniques and traditional management principles to prepare students and instructors to become supervisors in today's business world. This text emphasizes that supervision is working through people to develop and empower them to become better and more efficient in their roles. It closely follows the SCANS requirements for the five workplace competencies and three-part foundation of skills and personal qualities needed for job performance. In this fifth edition, the authors continue their "hands on" approach. In addition to providing numerous self-checks and skill-building opportunities, even more applications exercises have been added throughout.

I had to purchase this book (which mind you, was a freaking nightmare to find) as part of a management course at NYU. There is some great stuff in here, and it really did teach me some fundamentals of management theory. Which, although sounds totally boring, was really useful at my job.
