Synopsis

Essentials of Management is written for newcomers to the field of management and for
experienced managers seeking updated information and a review of the fundamentals.
It is also written for the many professionals and technical people who work closely
with managers and who take their turn at performing some management work. An
example would be the member of a cross-functional team who is expected to have the
perspective of a general manager.
Based on extensive research about curriculum needs, the design of Essentials
of Management addresses itself to the needs of introductory management courses
and supervision courses offered in educational settings. Previous editions of the
text were used in the study of management in colleges and universities, as well as in
career schools in such diverse programs as hospitality and tourism management, and
nursing. The book can also be used as a basic resource for management courses that
rely heavily on lecture notes, PowerPoint presentations, and videos rather than an
encyclopedia-like text.
