Free Management Library for profit and Nonprofit Organizations

This site provides many links for free, on-line resources about business, management and organizations.  The term "management" includes the activities necessary to plan, organize, lead and coordinate activities in an organization, whether for-profit or nonprofit.  “The focus of the library is, in particular, on the ‘20% of resources needed to address 80% of the challenges in business, management and organizations’  In this writer's experience, leaders and managers struggle far more because they haven't consistently mastered the basics than because they haven't mastered highly complex concepts and practices. The Library has included "nuts and bolts" information since its inception in 1995.”
