Managing Large Systems
Managing Large Systems examines a wide range of human, organizational, and managerial challenges associated with large systems. Special attention is given to the behavioral relationships among scientists and engineers, business and technical managers, sponsor organizations and their contractors, business and government offi cials, and line and functional managers.
The Working Leader
The goal: To be a leader who has an agenda, knows the system inside out, is comfortable with fluidity, and recognizes that the parts do not always fit into an integrated whole. Schooled to oversee fixed, almost unvarying routines, managers today are unprepared to manage the conflicts in modern work flow relationships. Sayles shows with vivid case studies how middle managers with an in-depth understanding of the organization can resolve the inherent contradictions and ambiguities among design, sales, and manufacturing.
Leadership
Abstract: A behavioral view of leadership is presented. Managers are usually viewed as either commonsense, practical individuals or as guardians of human satisfaction at work. Individuals take for granted the action and dynamism needed to perform first-rate managerial work. Understanding of behavioral skills assists practicing managers to comprehend organizational pressures, allocate energies among competing demands, and relate organizational work flow requirements to both management controls and personality differences. Specific topics included are based on formal and informal studies and cover: 1) The expectation and reality of the managerial world; 2) an overview of managerial work; 3) authority; 4) commitment and motivation; 5) lateral relations; 6) organizational power gains, struggles and status ; 7) work within the hierarchy; 8) types, use and design of controls; 9) facilitating organizational change; 10) project management skills; 11) managerial personalities.

Conflict in Japan
Social and political conflict in postwar Japan is the subject of this volume, which draws together a series of field-based studies by North American and Japanese sociologists, anthropologists, and political scientists. It focuses attention on the sources of conflict and the ways in which conflict is expressed and managed. This book challenges the widely held theories stressing the harmony and vertical structure of social relations in Japan, which imply that conflict is only of minimal importance.
