Black & white print. Principles of Management is designed to meet the scope and sequence requirements of the introductory course on management. This is a traditional approach to management using the leading, planning, organizing, and controlling approach. Management is a broad business discipline, and the Principles of Management course covers many management areas such as human resource management and strategic management, as well as behavioral areas such as motivation. No one individual can be an expert in all areas of management, so an additional benefit of this text is that specialists in a variety of areas have authored individual chapters.

Based on six years of research and hundreds of interviews with managers at every level of companies such as Intel, ABB, Canon, 3M, and McKinsey, The Individualized Corporation explores the collapse of an outmoded corporate form and reveals the emergence of a fundamentally different management philosophy--one that forces on the power of the individual as the driver of value creation in the company and the importance of individuality in management. The image of the "Organization Man" as a cog in a corporate machine has become both dated and dangerous. Rather than try to force employees into a homogeneous corporate mold based on a company's strategy, structure, and system, world-renowned scholars and consultants Sumantra Ghoshal and Christopher Bartlett argue that managers must embrace a philosophy based on purpose, process, and people that focuses on developing and leveraging the individual's unique talents and skills--a company's most important source of competitive advantage. Without proposing a universal solution or a quick-fix prescription, this important book provides an indispensable guide for those who must lead their companies into the next century.

Modern businesses are placed in a complex and intricate environment. The constraints imposed and the opportunities provided by the nature of the economic, political, legal, social, and demographic factors have a profound impact on the business. Management is a process by which managers continuously reinvent themselves to meet the organizational goals and global competition. A good manager must also possess a sound understanding of human behaviour to develop the most important managerial skill of empathy. This book is a first-level introduction to the field of management enabling students to understand what managers do, what skills are needed by managers, what their basic functions are, and in a nutshell what management is all about. The book elaborately describes the five functions of a manager—Planning, Organizing, Human Resource Management, Leading, and Directing and Control. The chapter-end exercises and practice quizzes encourage the student to rehearse the various concepts learnt throughout the text. The book is useful for students pursuing courses in Business Management both at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. It is also a useful text for undergraduate students pursuing courses in engineering disciplines and other professional courses where Principles of Management is part of the curriculum. A distinguishing feature of this text is that there is a visible bias of author’s training in Psychology.
