Management Principles: A Contemporary Edition for Africa (4th Edition) - PJ Smit et al

The challenges presented by the fast-changing business environment requires that organizations find new and innovative ways to respond in order to improve performance. The contemporary manager has to integrate new information technology, manage diversity, accommodate stakeholders' often conflicting claims, deal with the threat that HIV/AIDS poses to the workforce and comply with charters such as the Mining Charter. The list of challenges has become almost endless. Management principles - A contemporary edition for Africa exposes the reader to the traditional management functions of planning, organizing, leading and controlling, and as a response to this increasing complexity, new sections on ethical issues in management, corporate governance, strategy maps, the resource-based view of an organization, Six-Sigma, the South African Excellence Model, mentorship and coaching have been added to this updated fourth edition.
