I read a quote about managing a team, but I cannot remember where. Oddly enough, I remember that it was very important and thus want to look into learning about management. What are the best texts (books, posts, articles, etc.) to learn more about this area?
It originated the idea that management is based (even if implicitly) on a combination of two competing theories: "Theory X", which assumes employees are inclined towards laziness and misdirection, so management is the science and art of controlling, steering, and incentivizing them; and "Theory Y", which assumes employees are motivated and self-directed, so management is the science and art of enabling them.
