<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>2019 Reprint of 1963 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. JOE D. BATTEN (1925 - 2006) was the Chairman of the Board of the management consulting and human resource development firm, <em>Batten, Batten, Hudson and Swab</em>, Inc., whose headquarters were located in Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa. A prolific writer, Batten also published a number of books on management, including <em>Developing a Tough-Minded Climate...for Results</em> (1965); <em>Beyond Management by Objectives</em> (1966); <em>Dare to Live Passionately</em> (1966); <em>Guide to Successful Living</em> (1969); <em>The Confidence Chasm</em> (co-authored with his daughter Gail Batten, 1972); and <em>Expectations and Possibilities</em> (1981). Mr. Batten reached thousands of people with his philosophy of "tough-minded" living and working; a bold and articulate author, his works enriched the lives of many managers. On this work critics write: </p><p>"The excellence of the book lies in the basic information it has to give to the relatively new manager."--<em>Personnel Psycholog</em>y<br /> <br /> "Must reading for anyone who thinks all management books are just a rehash of planning, organizing, staffing, controlling, etc....Especially recommended..."--<em>NRHA Magazine</em><br /> <br /> "A totally fresh description of how to turn MBO into a 'living system'....practical and highly motivational."--<em>Buffalo Law Journal</em><br /> <br /> "Many useful suggestions to offer the executive."--<em>West Coast Review of Books</em></p>
