Management

Más información sobre el libro

This book is different from most in that it offers a comprehensive and balanced presentation of strategic management and organizational behavior concepts. It is all about bringing together the micro skills of people management with the macro skills of running a business. Strategy is often portrayed as the province of top-level managers only—the reality is that practicing managers need to know the strategy both in order to address the current challenges they face and to exploit the future opportunities they identify; it is not an either/or choice. The unique but interdependent specialties of the three co-authors not only help to balance the treatment of strategic management and organizational behavior across the chapters but also to integrate these concepts within chapters. Chapter titles Managing Change, Evaluating the External Environment, Ethics and Social Responsibility, Strategic Management, Organizational Structure and Design, Planning, Decision Making, Communication and Negotiation, Managing Human Resources, and Organizational Development and Transformation. For anyone in a professional business environment, preparing for a position in management.
