Management Knowledge: A Critical View
ISBN: 9780333770948 / Angielski / Miękka / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book fills the gap for a text which presents a theoretically-based critique of management knowledge but in an accessible form which is relevant to MBA students and practitioners alike. Students have to learn and digest accepted 'management knowledge' and practitioners look to gurus as a source of 'management knowledge' without any appreciation of how secure these ideas may be. This book will therefore be relevant to both students and practitioners in questioning how far management research actually leads to genuine knowledge of organizations.

Encyclopedia of Management Theory
ISBN: 9781412997829 / Angielski / Twarda / 1056 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In discussing a management topic, scholars, educators, practitioners, and the media often toss out the name of a theorist (Taylor, Simon, Weber) or make a sideways reference to a particular theory (bureaucracy, total quality management, groupthink) and move on, as if assuming their audience possesses the necessary background to appreciate and integrate the reference. This is often far from the case. Individuals are frequently forced to seek out a hodgepodge of sources varying in quality and presentation to provide an overview of a particular idea. This work is designed to serve as a core...
