Developing Management Skills for Europe, 2nd Edition
David Whetten Kim Cameron Mike Woods
Developing Management Skills for Europe is a comprehensive and practical guide to effective managerial behaviour. The text aims to link the latest in academic research with the practicalities of working in an increasingly globalised environment. It is a sound but practical introduction to business and management skills with a strong emphasis on self-assessment.
Features:
· Each chapter begins with a self-assessment test designed to measure individual understanding and ability in the area to be covered. The reader is invited to return after reading the chapter to consider how their understanding but most importantly, skills, may have developed.
· The chapters present the theory and principles of the effective performance of each skill using case studies, role-plays, simulations and exercises. Through this process readers are given the opportunity to develop new skills.
· The latest research is introduced to provide arguments for the usefulness of the material, both in preparing answers to exam questions and projects and in the workplace.
· The latest edition includes new material on teams, leadership and culture.
As well as providing readers with a number of tools and techniques for developing and applying skills, this text will give the reader a thorough understanding of the conceptual knowledge behind them. The goal of this text is to provide students, current and prospective managers with the personal, interpersonal and group skills, enabling them to reduce the gap between good ideas and accepted practice.
The text, written clearly but with authority, is suitable for undergraduate and MBA students and also for those taking IPD foundation module Effective Manager.
