 The One Minute Manager
ASIN: 0425098478
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: Powerful Simplicity
Comments: I was a little disappointed when 'The One Minute Manager' arrived in the mail and I saw its small size and large fonts. However, this tiny little fairy-tale is the best management book I've read. I strongly recommend this book for managers in all fields, including professors in academia. 'The One Minute Manager' takes less than an hour to read, and if you have any interest in becoming a better manager or a stronger leader, surely you can risk 60 minutes of your time? The ideas are not contrived, artificial mechanisms that interfere with our natural personalities. Instead, the entire strategy can be implemented by following a few simple rules that feel natural and are easy to perform and maintain. Sound too good to be true? Just try it!
A word of caution though, use of the strategy assumes the individuals on the manager's team are intelligent, and the tools presented are designed to encourage subordinates to become more independent and responsible, not reliant on a manager's approval, input or direction on minor decisions. Any manager who wants to be involved in all aspects of a project couldn't possibly use the strategies of 'The One Minute Manager' without driving his team nuts.

 How to Organize Your Life and Get Rid of Clutter: How to Clear Your Home and Office of the Messy Buildups That Cramp Your Mind - And Crimp Your Producti
ASIN: 1559775661
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: EXCELLENT - You can only laugh at yourself !
Comments: I thought I was beyond repair... but Ab is so humerous and the live tape lets you laugh along with others who are obviously in the same boat. The systems he discusses to de-clutter your life are terrific for someone like myself who just can't seem to get past the clutter of paper both at home and in the office. I am tackeling closets, attics, garages and showing no mercy. I highly recommend this tape for anyone who needs motivation for getting the job done... which you know in your heart has needed to be done for months/years.

 Get It Together: How to Organize Everything in Your Life (All About You)
ASIN: 0439135478
Customer's Rating: 5
Summary: I needed to GET ORGANIZED--and now I am!
Comments: My room is not the neatest room on earth but it is not the messiest either. It is one of those rooms in between. I would like to have the time to have it be more organized, but it never seems like I have enough time. This book helped me organize everything in my life including time, my room, my schoolwork, my goals, and what I want to save my money for. It helped me not by only having ideas written on the page of the book, but made me think of my own ideas and actually made me want to get organized. My room is now more organized, I have more time on my hands to do things I enjoy, I am not losing my homework every night, and I now spend my money more wisely and end up having what I got the same day I got it--(Not spending it right when I got it). If you need a book that is not so thick that you never think you will finish it, but a book that gives you a lot of information, this is the book to get to help you organize everything in your life! :)
