Title: Mind-Set Management
Author(s): Samuel A. Culbert
Publisher: Oxford University Press, 1996

This book explores the challenges facing managers as they attempt to lead people they do not really control. Employees are expected to become increasingly autonomous in the workplace, while managers are still responsible for leading everyone toward a common goal. The author incites managers seeking to reconcile these two seemingly-conflictual imperatives to serve as “advisors” to their employees, and outlines several principles to help them succeed in this difficult task.
