The trouble with ''management'' education, says author Henry Mintzberg, is that it is business education, and leaves a distorted impression of management. In Managers Not MBAs, he offers a new definition of management as a blend of craft (experience), art (insight), and science (analysis). An education that overemphasizes science encourages a style of managing the author calls ''calculating,'' or if the graduates believe themselves to be artists, the related style ''heroic.'' According to the book, neither heroes nor technocrats in positions of influence are useful what's really needed are balanced, dedicated people who practice a style that can be called ''engaging.'' Such people believe their purpose is to leave behind stronger organizations, not just higher share prices. Managers Not MBAs explains in detail how to cultivate such managers, and how they can transform the business world and, ultimately, society.
