Allwin, I have not read any of the books you have mentiond. Looks like I have a lot of catching to do. IMO, the first book that a person even remotely interested in management , or otherwise , should read is " YOU CAN WIN" by Shiv Khera. Also there is a very good book by the IMG president "What they don't teach you at Harvard Business school" which would probably be more useful while actually doing MBA.

That one is by Mark McCormack. I have it & just recently loaned it to a friend. The book is a personal autobiography. Almost. The one over-riding theme in the book is about treating people right and giving them the responsibility to do the job.

phew!!!!!!! hey emperor! even I seem to have a lot to catch up! I thought that I was voracious reader, but now it feels as if am still a tyro! Anyways, talking about management, I recommend "Iacocca".. Its the autobiography of Mr. Lee Iacocca! Yeah! you're right, the man behind the Ford! No too much of learning stuff, but sure very interesting!
Experimenting with experience!!!!!!!

I read it a long time ago. Self Serving book. I was surprised the way Lee Iacocca hid certain details about how he caused the Ford Co. tons of losses by way of the launch of the "Pinto" ( I think ) car. But then he hides this fact a couple of chapters after he boots Mr. Ford, left, right & center for not treating him fairly

Ouch ! I forgot to add one more master piece I recently laid my hands on. -> My Years at General Motors - Alfred Sloan Jr. This one ranks high up there. A master piece no doubt. I had to read it thrice. It was tough to get in all the information and perspectives at the same time. This was one visionary. Bill Gates on the above book: If there is only one book you have to read on management, Read this.
Hm.. I've read Bill Gates' Business @ Speed of Thought. I was truly surprised at the integration possibilities of computers with our normal lives. Microsoft truly has integrated almost everything they can lay their hands on. This book shows what an high tech company can do in terms of integration, computerisation & getting computers to almost dominate every aspect of life. Regards,

Even I read it on the recommendation of esteemed Mr. Bill Gates.. Say, even "The Road Ahead" is no novice's job! Ultimate in its own way!

The book itself is very good. Just that a guy of such vision, determination & clarity should have shown the losses he did at Ford with the same integrity in the right chapters. It is a very nice book for new comers on the scene and should not deter any one from picking it up for a quick read Regards,
