Industry Secrets of Health Club Management Revealed in New Book

Oxygen Consulting (http://www.oxygen-consulting.co.uk), a UK based management consultancy, publishes a new book on 21 November, 2006 for individuals wishing to master the complexities of operating a sports or leisure club.

The book, titled Mastering Health Club Management, is a collaboration between 13 industry specialists and is written in an action-oriented style. Sponsored by Precor (http://www.precor.com), part of international sports equipment company, Amer Sports, areas covered include industry-specific branding, team building/leading, crisis management, marketing strategy and customer/client liaison.

Ray Algar, managing director of Oxygen Consulting, comments: 'Some club managers are now operating £10 million clubs with 120 staff. However, there remain very few published books to support managers in developing a rewarding club experience for members. For this book to have real credibility, we knew that it needed to have the input of more than one author and a recognised sponsor such as Precor.'

Ray adds: 'With Precor's support, we are able to sell this book for just £25, making it affordable for students seeking critical insight into the fast growing health club industry.'

A free sample chapter from Mastering Health Club Management (ISBN number 0955382602) will be available as a download from http://www.oxygen-consulting.co.uk/publishing.php Details on ordering the book can also be found on the website.
