DOWNLOAD EBOOKPrinciples of General Management: a responsible approach for southern Africa, answers the need of a resource to provide students first entering the field of management, that helps them to become responsible managers and leaders, to be change agents, and to act as the human foundation for responsible organisations. The book is currently the first book written by South Africans for the South African and broader African market, integrating the pillars of responsible management in the main managerial functions. This book covers the traditional view of management, encompassing the planning, organising, leading and control functions. The three pillars of responsible management (sustainability, responsibility and ethics) are then integrated into each of these functions with the aim to develop responsible managers, organisations, socio-economic systems and ultimately a sustainable world society. A responsible manager will embrace triple-bottom line optimization, stakeholder value optimization, ethical decision-making and create moral excellence in his or her organisation. Topics, enriched with South African examples, case studies and scenarios, that are covered include: - The evolution of management theory and how traditional theories evolve to responsible management - A responsible approach to the management process - Sustainability, responsibility and ethics - Social entrepreneurship - The management environment - A responsible approach to organisational planning - A responsible approach to organising - Responsible leadership - Workforce motivation - A responsible approach to controlling The book is ideal for undergraduate studies at higher education institutions, managers in the corporate and public environment, leaders, project managers (especially for CSR related projects) and anyone aspiring to be a responsible manager.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKInformation services are currently going through what is probably the most significant period of change in their history. At the same time, thinking about organisational change in general management has continued to develop, and many of the emerging ideas, strategies and processes are increasingly relevant to information services. Since the first edition of this highly regarded book was published in 2000 the pace of change has accelerated because of the influence of digitisation and technological developments in general, the emergence of what might be called a business culture, changes in skills and knowledge requirements, and changes in user and personnel attitudes. Despite these rapid developments the current literature tends to reflect a preoccupation with technological developments at the expense of consideration for the broader managerial base. This second edition fills the gap in the literature and is fully updated with the inclusion of a number of new chapters and new case studies.
