Management Book of the Year Competition from CMI
With the 100s of management books published each year it can be a daunting task finding the most helpful ones, so CMI and the British Library have teamed up to uncover the best that the UK has to offer as part of the first ever Management Book of the Year competition.
You might be interested to know that a survey carried out by CMI / British Library on professional reading habits found that, when it comes to topic choice, more people would like to read about how to achieve a good work/life balance (40 per cent) than how to get a pay rise (30 per cent). 31 per cent are interested in guidance on how to manage people while just 19 per cent would like tips on securing a promotion.
The competition aims to raise the profile of the great management writing being produced by UK authors. There are three competition categories: Practical Manager, Innovation and Entrepreneurship and Digital Management Book. Management Book of the Year is the UK’s first competition to have a category dedicated to texts in a digital format.
The shortlist will be announced at CMI’s annual conference in October, with the overall winner selected by a panel of expert judges and announced in January 2011.
