It is a glorious miscellaneous mix of ideologies. * Management Week * Are you confused by management jargon and nonplussed about why the likes of Charles Handy and Gary Hamel are held in such great awe? Then Carol Kennedy's book could be just the thing for you. * The Independent * What makes a management guru? My first port of call is Carol Kennedy . . . * Evening Standard *
