內容簡介
本書是一本英文影印版教材,原著是已故管理學大師哈羅德·孔茨的經典著作《管理學》的最新版,由海因茨·韋里克教授基於之前的版本精心編著。
本書按照計畫、組織、人員、領導和控制五種職能來劃分管理知識,並將這一主線貫穿全書,使五種職能有機地構成一個完整的系統,同時又把企業和外部環境結合在一起。新版尤其突出了如下兩大特色:
·國際化視角。全書滲透了國際化管理的觀點,闡述了不同國家和地區的企業的管理實踐,對中國企業很有借鑑意義。
·領導力視角。本書對領導力給予了特別的關注,採用大量的專欄和案例展示不同國家和地區企業家的領導實踐,並對中國企業家的領導力給予了很高的評價。
此外,本書案例極其豐富,涉及世界許多國家和地區,還包括大量中國本土企業案例。
本書非常適合用作高校管理類專業雙語或全英文教學教材,也適合喜歡閱讀原著的讀者學習參考。
