Through five editions since its first release in 1959, What Every Supervisor Should Know has effectively responded to the changing needs of supervisors, and it remains the standard in the field of supervision.

It's the best reference available for supervisors just starting out as well as for seasoned managers who need to freshen up on the basics or update their skills.
