The way they are managed influences their attitudes, can help to create a team of people who will fulfil their own career objectives, and through this can influence the performance of the organization as a whole. This book, which draws on perceptions gathered through many years of practical experience, is unique in addressing these challenges and opportunities in the context of the construction industry. It deals with the broad range of subjects and skills that are required. Both those peculiar to the constuction industry and more general, and provides sound information and advice for all those in, or aspiring to positions of management responsibility.
