Management - A Critical Text

Management - A Critical Text

by Liz Fulop (Author), Stephen Linstead (Author)

Synopsis

This text identifies the major issues that managers need to understand and respond to in the context of dramatic changes in the world economy. Developments in terms of international competition, economic deregulation, industrial restructuring and technological transformation are necessitating a rethinking of management and are posing major challenges to conventional ideas of leadership and managing strategic change. The book presents students and practising managers with creative ways of thinking and learning about management. In the 21st century, managers will need to be proactive and flexible, sensitive to a wide range of issues and concerns, critical of their own and others' assumptions and behaviours, and above all, committed to continuous learning. This book aims to help them get there.
