Summary
Annotation This stimulating, clearly written and well-structured text is a comprehensive introduction to the principles of management and organizational behavior, as well as a corrective to the Eurocentric bias of most management texts. This book focuses on four domains of management--primal, rational, developmental and metaphysical. It develops a transcultural perspective drawing on insights from across the world to examine different management styles, cultures and stages of business development. Each section examines core management theory and literature, cultural orientation and related prominent theories. The numerous case studies are drawn from America, Scandinavia, Japan, the Far East, Southern Africa and elsewhere. This is a substantially revised and updated version of Ronnie Lessem's acclaimed book Global Management Principles (1989), using three-quarters new material.
