ReviewsI thought this book would make more real-world sense to students than a traditional management book. The scenario section is very well put together with the questions for review. Many students need that relevance to real life. This book...will be a very good tool for the classroom, one that I would highly consider using., I like the concept of the book. There is a need for this type of book in the green industry. Fifteen chapters are ideal for the semester system--I like the use of four sections and 15 chapters. The chapters do cover the major topics appropriate for the subject with the exception of possibly including a section for those who start their own business

No other management text exists today that is able to mesh current supervisory principles with an intimate day-to-day understanding of the Green Industry. By incorporating real-life scenarios that are firmly-based in the landscape, nursery, golf course/turf management and arboriculture professions, this text is able to greatly assist soon-to-be supervisors in working through a multitude of decision-making processes.
