Hard Facts, Dangerous Half-Truths, and Total Nonsense: Profiting from Evidence-Based Management

Too much common management "wisdom" is flawed knowledge based on "best practices" that are actually poor, incomplete, or outright obsolete. Jeffrey Pfeffer and Robert I. Sutton show how companies can bolster performance and trump the competition through evidence-based management, an approach to decision making that is driven by hard facts. This candid book uses this approach to dismantle six widely held--but ultimately flawed--management beliefs, and shows how to turn common sense into common practice.
