This book unveils the unknown and often unexplored world of management practices within organizations. Through real-life stories, experienced by managers and professionals, we demonstrate how these practices take shape in daily operations. Initially, I selected 120 stories that offered valuable insights into management, but here I share 16 of them—each connected to a crucial practice in Leadership, Management, Human Resources, and Strategy. As you delve into these stories, you may find yourself relating to some of the situations, gaining a deeper understanding of the challenges in management, and perhaps even discovering new ways to apply them in your own career. If you have a story worth telling, I would be honored to hear it. Martius Vicente Rodriguez y Rodriguez – Vice Director Administration Faculty – UFF – Brazil.
