Homo Anthropologicus
Skilfully analysing the challenges posed by management practices to the human condition, Jean-François Chanlat examines the sociological evolution of modern management. This book acts as a crucial pedagogical guide to the history and essence of managerial operations. This book presents a critical reflection on contemporary managerial practices from an anthropological perspective, outlining an essential methodological framework for the use of management sciences alongside social sciences such as anthropology and psychology. The modern world is faced with formidable socio-economic, technological, environmental and ethical challenges, thus this book emphasises that to succeed, we must meet these collectively. Ultimately, Chanlat assesses how we can improve leadership practices and, through this, tackle core societal obstacles. Homo Anthropologicus is vital for students and professors of business ethics, public administration and social sciences. It also provides an illuminating insight into the interdisciplinary nature of management studies for executives and managers within these fields.

Awareness of cultural differences and the willingness to view them as a positive are therefore crucial assets. This edited textbook sets itself apart from existing cross-cultural management texts by highlighting to the reader the need to avoid both ethnocentris...

Cet ouvrage fait le point sur les avancées r...
