Everything You Need for an NVQ in Management

Overview

All the relevant management techniques and principles are explained in a clear, practical style, structured around the recently revised National Occupational Standards for Management and Leadership, and conforming to the requirements of the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority. After reading this book students will be well prepared and have everything needed to compile the portfolio of evidence and achieve the qualification.

Everything you Need for an NVQ in Management is also an extremely useful and comprehensive encyclopaedia of management techniques and principles for those not wanting to gain a qualification.

It is written specifically for supervisors and junior managers, middle managers and senior managers working within medium and large organisations who wish to increase their knowledge and understanding of business and further their careers, whether or not they are working towards a specific qualification. It would also prove useful to those running and working in small businesses and to business studies students in schools and colleges.
