I do wish that amazon starts including bookmarks with book purchases. I regularly purchase books, but they have stopped sending bookmarks for quite a time.

During his tenure at Intel Corporation, he described the different reorganisations that the company went through, with the only one which was effective - which just about every large company or enterprise that he knew was organised was in a hybrid form, which consisted of mission-oriented departments. This reminding me of product lines.
Although it was published over 25 years ago, the management practices are timeless, where Grove touches on the negative impact of 'managerial meddling' (disempowerment) and he talks about productivity, work simplification and leverage with the goal to work smarter, not harder!
As Grove says "..the single most important sentence of this book: The output of a manager is the output of the organisation units under his or her supervision or influence".
The key to survival is to learn to add more value, which is ultimately what this book is about.
A classic book on management, which I'd recommend.

A classic book on management, which I'd recommend.
But a good book nevertheless.
I would challenge anyone to review their own workplace, their own work practices using some of Grove's ideas.
Liked the simple idea on the manager's preparation for decision making:
What decision needs to be made?
English: Portrait of Andrew Grove. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
When does it have to be made?
Who will decide?
Who will need to be consulted prior to making the decision?
Who will ratify or veto the dcision
Who will need to be informed of the decision?
Pity it does not happen more often.
On meetings I think he is right: two types. Are we talking of a process oriented meeting (one-on-one, staff meetings, operations reviews) or a mission-oriented meeting?
The discussion of hybrid organisations and dual reporting is straightforward and recognises the reality of how many businesses need to be structured.
Liked the honesty of his section on performance appraisal. And his clarity on the importance of this process, the need for preparation and the rationale for the process in the first instance.
Not sure I fully agreed with him on his views on trying to retain people who say they are going to leave.
Finally - he is very clear on the manager's role and responsibility for training - including preparation and delivery of training. I would see this as a major failing with many managers in industry. And a major missed opportunity.
