Riassunto

Fundamentals of Management takes a logical and student-centred approach to management from a business perspective. It first provides a comprehensive foundation in the basic concepts of management, supported by global examples and experiential exercises, which place ideas in a real-life context. The text then examines contemporary debates in the field, promoting student interaction and learning. An essential textbook both for management specialists and non-specialists, Fundamentals of Management provides a comprehensive grounding in all core management topics.
