Abstract

MAKING EXPERIENCE PAY. by Alan Mumford (McGraw‐Hill, £7.95) EVERYBODY learns from experience in some way, but how many managers find that learning from experience is a slow, painful and hit‐or‐miss affair which they find difficult to analyse, let alone use profitably in their day‐to‐day work? Here, Alan Mumford shows the manager how to really make that experi‐ence pay. Based on years of work in management development, and using essentially practical techniques, “Making Experience Pay” demonstrates how the manager can learn quickly and effectively from his everyday experience while still achieving the results demanded by his job.
