Book Description

The condensed version of Contemporary Management is Jones and George's Essentials of Contemporary Management, which is published in PDF format. Both George and Jones are committed to meeting the challenge of making “It Real” accessible to all students in higher education. The authors offer management in a manner that ensures its continued applicability to students even if they have not had any prior experience working in a “real-life” management setting. This is accomplished through using a wide variety of examples taken from the real world, as well as the most well-liked component of the textbook, which is titled “as a Person” (Chapter. 2). This chapter examines managers not as abstract concepts but as real people who face real challenges and have real personalities and real talents and possibilities. This concept is developed further over the subsequent chapters. The significance of management competencies, defined as “the unique set of abilities, skills, and experiences that give one manager the ability to operate at a higher level than another in a specific situation,” is the subject of frequent debate. The ebook is organized around a number of core ideas, including ethics, globalization, diversity, and information technology.
