Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 67 pp. This book supplements Sir Paulias Matane's earlier book, Management Problems in PNG. Sir Paulias, who has a great concern for improving the quality of life in Papua New Guinea, observes that the basic attributes of an effective manager include the clarity in his instructions to his associates, the trait of being pleasant but commanding, a sense of urgency about getting things done, a desire to find a better way of doing things, the spark of courage to take action where others hesitate, getting along well with people, appreciating people for their good work, the knack of taking sound decisions, backing people, motivation, allegiance to the organization, penchant for learning, improving people's attitudes through counseling, and keeping one alive to the happenings all around -- these are some of the attributes of a good manager which Sir Paulias has elaborated in this book.

Students of management, who are prospective managers, will certainly get an insight into a wide array of management techniques and thus can equip themselves for managerial positions. 0.0.…

Spanning a period of ninety years, the novelist describes, in vivid details, Aimbe's pastoral adventures, his bravery during the Second World War, and his devotion to his people under the renewed colonial exploitation. The novel is interspersed with romantic tales, and reflects the novelist's dexterity in bringing together various strands of the story to examine problems posed in the village life by the alien and materialistic way of life. Thus, it bring to focus the real life as lived in the early twentieth century in the countryside. …
