Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FOUNDATIONS OF MANAGEMENT 3e has been written to address the needs of introductory management subjects that require an accessible and concise introduction. This streamlined text of 15 chapters covers the principal concepts of management to provide students with a solid foundation for understanding key issues. Management is a dynamic discipline and a textbook in this area must constantly undergo significant changes to prepare students to manage modern, ever-changing organisations within our transforming world. This new third edition builds on the success of its previous editions by exploring the new challenges that face managers today. New topics and features have been added to better reflect the field of management and to capture the excitement of this dynamic discipline. The text highlights six integrative topics throughout. These topics are managing for sustainability, globalisation, innovation, customer service, diversity and ethics. In particular, we believe the inclusion of managing for sustainability is an important recognition of the challenge that must be met by todays managers and organisations as they start to tackle the issue of global warming. This best-selling text is not a book that just describes management theories. In addition it includes many practical examples and cases, which illustrate the theories in action. As it successfully integrates the various functions of management, the book establishes a dialogue with managers from a variety of fields. This third edition continues to make management concepts meaningful and to excite readers about the possibilities of careers in management.

This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book's premise is that the theories taught in management schools are based on unacknowledged philosophical perspectives that are significant not so much for what they explain, but for what they assume. Rarely made explicit, these perspectives cannot be reconciled, with the result that the study of management has been dominated by contradictions and internecine intellectual warfare. However, the ability critically to analyze these diverse perspectives is essential to practicing and aspiring managers if they are to evaluate expert opinion. Moreover, since management is primarily an exercise in communication, managing is impossible in the darkness of an imprecise language, in the absence of moral references, or in the senseless outline of a world without intellectual foundations. Managing is a prime example of applied philosophy.

This fantastic book uncovers scholars' unquestioned assumptions and shows that by upholding these assumptions researchers obscure the paradoxical nature of strategic reasoning. To uncover the paradoxes of strategic management the author refers to the philosophy of Jacques Derrida. He delves into the internal contradictions that inevitably occur when theorizing about corporate strategy along the dimensions strategy context, process, and content and shows how these paradoxes can enrich future thinking about strategic problems.

This book is the perfect guide for anyone interested in understanding and excelling at risk management.

Every concept in almost every chapter is calibrated to not only ISO 9001 and ISO 31000, but several other international standards. In addition, this book presents several tools and methods for discussion. Ranging from industry standard to cutting edge, each receives a thorough analysis and description of its role in the risk management process. Finally, you'll find a detailed and practical discussion of contemporary topics in risk management, such as supply chain risk management, risk-based auditing, risk in 4.0 (digital transformation), benefit-risk analyses, risk-based design thinking, and pandemic/epidemic risk management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand and apply new concepts regarding Work Breakdown Structures The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) has emerged as a foundational concept and tool in Project Management. It is an enabler that ensures clear definition and communication of project scope while performing a critical role as a monitoring and controlling tool. Created by the three experts who led the development of PMI®'s Practice Standard for Work Breakdown Structures, Second Edition, this much-needed text expands on what the standard covers and describes how to go about successfully implementing the WBS within the project life cycle, from initiation and planning through project closeout. Filling the gap in the literature on the WBS, Work Breakdown Structures: The Foundation for Project Management Excellence gives the reader an understanding of: The background and key concepts of the WBS WBS core characteristics, decomposition, representations, and tools Project initiation and the WBS, including contracts, agreements, and Statements of Work (SOW) Deliverable-based and activity-based management Using the WBS as a basis for procurement and financial planning Quality, risk, resource, and communication planning with the WBS The WBS in the executing, monitoring, and controlling phases New concepts regarding the representation of project and program scope Verifying project closeout with the WBS Using a real-life project as an example throughout the book, the authors show how the WBS first serves to document and collect information during the initiating and planning phases of a project. Then, during the executing phase, the authors demonstrate how the WBS transitions to an active role of project decision-support, serving as a reference and a source for control and measurement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past three decades a number of important changes have made international business more complex and exciting. The rapid and continuous changes in information and communications technology (ITC), reduced trade barriers among countries, and regionalization have increased the links and dependency among firms from various countries. This has created opportunities for increasing expansion to new markets and increasing global integration while simultaneously posing many challenges. This book views international business as a complex and integrated system and takes a systems approach to study and analyze the changes thus enabling readers to assess global business opportunities and risk in a comprehensive and integral manner. The topics presented in this book allow practitioners, scholars, and students of international business to have a broad understanding of the most relevant issues in a changing international environment.
