Laboratory Management books

[John]

Can anyone recommend good management books, especially with regard to lab management.

A compendium of Dilbert cartoons would be a good place to start.

John,

I don't have any references at the moment, but I have seen them and I will look them up.

Meanwhile, you may find something of interest from the Analytical Laboratory Managers Association (ALMA). Check them out at this link:

Hi,
I suggest "Managing the Analytical Laboratory: Plain and Simple" by Clifford Nielsen (CRC Press).
Book is really practical but remember this may be considered a downside also.

Thanks,

John,
If you get any books, make sure you only read them at home and don't keep them at work. Dilbert and Wally might just work for you....

Or for when the ethyl acetate has leaked out .....The Far Side.
