Human Foundations of Management

Abstract

We live in dynamic times and a manager's job is continuously reshaped by a wide range of global, environmental and economic factors. Management students must be well prepared to work in modern, ever-changing organisations and teams. The 7th edition of Management is once again a resource at the leading edge of thinking and research. By blending theory with stimulating, pertinent case studies and innovative practices, Robbins encourages students to get excited about the possibilities of a career in management. Developing the managerial skills essential for success in business - by understanding and applying management theories--is made easy with fresh new case studies and a completely revised suite of teaching and learning resources available with this text. Part 1. Introduction -- Part 2. Defining the manager's terrain -- Part 3. Decision making and change -- Part 4. Planning and control -- Part 5. Organising -- Part 6. Leading.
