"Many authors purport to be wise. Few are. Jack Grossman is, and you can see it in his refusal to offer glib techniques to 'handle' people. This could be a career-saving book for a manager who’s been employing such techniques to little effect. For as Grossman shows in so many ways, wisdom is much more than technique. It’s also respect, tact, experience, and a keen understanding of what motivates and frightens people. Read a principle a day for a month. They’ll help you break through walls now blocking excellence in yourself and others." (Soundview - Executive Book Summaries, May 1996)

Imagine attending 27 practical workshop or seminars, each ranging in length from two hours to one whole day, all of them carefully designed to help you improve your relationship with yourself and with other people you value. Managing with Wisdom offers this experience to you and other managers in your company, without having to take leave from the office! Grossman promises that if you do your part--with activities and exercises to take you through the process of learning each principle of good management--you will not only elevate your self-respect, gain a greater control of your life, but will also build strong and healthy communication bridges that will enable you to connect with people you value, both in business and in your personal life.

• You will, more often than not, say and do the right things, in the right way, at the right time, and in the right place. In short, you will make appropriate use of your intellect, other resources, experiences, and power.
• You will focus on being and doing your best, not on pleasing others. When you focus on being and doing your best, you are in control, whereas by pleasing others you relinquish control to them.
• You will make it easy for people to give you what you want and need from them. How? By giving them what they want and need from you. A practical exercise will help you discover what people need and want from you.
• Because you will develop realistic expectations of both your marketing- and personal-based relationships, your disappointments in people will diminish substantially.
• You will learn how to criticize in ways that will prompt people to thank you rather than be resentful.
