This link provides you with what I believe is an essential addition to the e-library of every manager. You should keep it available for the rest of your career. Meanwhile I would like you to pick one article that especially appeals to you , read it and write a review for your classmates discussing not only the article but also the reasons why (or why not) they should take the time to read it. Be concise, be complete (what's good and what's bad in the article) and be persuasive in your recommendation.
