Features: Management is an applied subject. However, if classroom instruction always traces the history of management research and theory development, it is not conducive to students becoming true managers in the future. A theoretical framework can provide business school graduates with the information and arguments needed to understand management situations. However, to become competent managers, students must engage in management practice and receive feedback on their behavior. Today, the expectation for students has shifted from learning theory to better understand knowledge to learning skills to improve themselves. As one management education scholar has said, "Management students need to practice how to motivate others to accomplish tasks and achieve goals, rather than just reading about six different theories of motivation for comparison and contrast." This book covers all aspects of organizational management, from supervision to interpersonal relationships, from employee placement to performance evaluation, from employee development to leadership in change, conflict resolution, and various other skills. By reading and studying this book, managers can become aware of their shortcomings, enrich their management knowledge, improve their management skills, and better contribute to organizations and businesses. This book is suitable for students studying management courses in universities, middle-level managers, leaders, and CEOs in organizations or companies. It can also serve as supplementary material for MBA and EMBA programs. Of course, a broad readership can also read this book to learn various management skills, develop their abilities, and apply them in their careers.
