Shove Halfpenny Rules

Napoleon and management

I finished reading this book by Jerry Manas.
With modern style and compelling blends elements of historical transitions in project management.

The idea of \u200b\u200bManas is in fact to stress that the diplomatic and strategic skills of Bonaparte can be applied to project management in a competitive market.

The text is organized into three parts.

The first traces the rise and the extraordinary analytical skills and organizational character.
The second highlights six principles which the author contributed to its successful political and military realities that are applicable to current management.
The third analyzes the weaknesses that led to his downfall on the assumption that more often you learn from the mistakes from the successes.

addition to the examples and statements taken directly from history, the author takes up some systems provided by business experts thus integrating lessons ranging from 1700 to the present day.

I like the approach of Manas to the character's history, its clean style and the content treated with great clarity.
