Recent media additions

I thought it might be useful to provide details of some of the latest management DVDs that have recently been added to stock in Adsetts, in case you want to consider using any of them in next year's teaching. I have included links to publishers' descriptions (just click on the DVD title) and to the relevant library catalogue record (at the bottom of each description). If you have any suggestions for further DVDs that would be useful in your teaching please let me know.

Best Wishes
