Summary: "There's no doubt that the world has changed, is changing, and continues to change. The dynamic nature of today's organizations means both rewards and challenges for those individuals who will be managing those organizations. Management is a dynamic discipline and a textbook on the subject must constantly undergo significant changes to prepare the reader to manage under these conditions. Therefore, [the authors] carefully revised this seventh edition of Management to provide with the best possible understanding of what it means to be a manager. [The authors] have retained the basic four-functions approach, content, and features that have proven successful in previous editions. And, importantly, [the authors] have added new topics and features that better reflect the field of management and capture its excitement in the twenty-first century." - Preface.
