Reinventing Management
The economic crisis was not just caused by a failure of regulation or economic policy; it was a story of the failure of management in a fundamental sense—a deeply flawed approach to management that encouraged bankers to pursue opportunities without regard for their long-term consequences, and to put their own interests ahead of those of their employers and their shareholders. The revised edition of this best-selling book shows convincingly that many of today’s major economic problems in the west can be traced to a failure of management. In this updated edition the author draws our attention to new examples of failed management, from Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp, and the disaster at BP, to the ongoing problems in financial services companies such as UBS and RBS. Throughout the book the references and statistics have been updated, to make this a current, highly relevant analysis of the problems besetting modern business and how managers need to tackle them.
A History of Management Thought
Of all the sciences and social sciences, management is the one that most deliberately turns its back on the past. Yet management as we know it today did not spring into life fully formed. Management has more than just a present; it also has a past, and a future, and all three are inextricably linked. This book charts the evolution of management as an intellectual discipline, from ancient times to the present day. Contemporary management challenges, including sustainability, technology and data, and legitimacy are analysed through an historical lens and with the benefit of new case studies. The author helps readers understand how the evolution of management ideas has interacted with changes in society. By framing management's history as one of challenge and response, this new edition is the perfect accompaniment for students and scholars seeking meaningful study in the business school and beyond. Essential reading as a core textbook in management history, the book is also valuable supplementary reading across the humanities and social sciences.
Innovating Organization and Management
Explains and illustrates through case studies the four key sources of competitive advantage and financial success.
The 18th Variation
Based on real events in South Africa... When Anneke Mouton is left for dead after a sadistic sexual assault, her art teacher, Karl Ryneveld, becomes the prime suspect. He's out on bail, after all, awaiting trial for sexually molesting two of Anneke's schoolmates. The people of his town are already suspicious about Karl's free-thinking liberalism, and when the police search his house they find a stash of photos and a painting of Anneke, all of them showing the 18-year old blonde in the nude. Karl manages to evade the police and the following day his abandoned car is found at the Berg River with a suicide note. The police investigation grinds to a halt, but Karl's daughter, Roxana, cannot believe that her father was a murderer. Nor does Sean Dumont, who writes an unfinished memoir about Karl. Years later Sean, Roxy, and the author roll back in town and Karl's infamous painting of Anneke is seen with a fresh set of eyes. Unexpectedly the truth is uncovered.
