Managing Humans has got some very good reviews and it's not hard to see why - the book is laugh out loud funny in places and more than a couple of times, I would up pointing out funny sentences to my SO.

The core idea of the book really is on identifying and avoiding "silent mistakes" - things that go wrong because you did not realize they are critical. Definitely a book that needs to be read more than once to absorb fully. (read less)
