Download or read book Management and Leadership Development written by Christopher Mabey and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2007-12-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `This is the first really thought-provoking book that I have read on management development. It is a book primarily addressed to students, but in this field, we are all students. It merits a wide readership both among practising managers as well as among those responsible for developing them′ - Max Boisot, ESADE `Mabey and Finch-Lees inject a breath of fresh air into the management development field by expanding upon its heretofore functionalist base. They offer an informative critique of mainstream views, featuring alternative discourses to examine such hard questions as why management development hasn′t quite delivered on management′s considerable investment in it. As a veritable tour de force in its absorbing integration and review of a large tract of literature, the book informs both management scholars and practitioners what might be expected from management development′s intended but also unanticipated outcomes′ - Joe Raelin, Northeastern University `In a well-written, accessible and yet sophisticated text, Mabey and Finch-Lees show themselves to be as familiar with the latest in management development practice as they are with the sometimes arcane theoretical literature that surrounds it. Its great strength is to recognize the plurality of discourses - some overlapping and complementary, others distinct and oppositional - about the subject. This book can be recommended as a unique resource for students and scholars of management development′ - Chris Grey, University of Warwick This book represents a significant step forward in the theory of management and leadership development. It offers an international perspective in this era of globalisation and a new and questioning perspective on the common belief that leadership is something completely different to, and more important than, management. This book will be of great help to the serous theorist and researcher of management and leadership development. It is an invaluable point of reference for a broad range of theory and research in this area, which it summarises with admirable brevity and clarity′ - John G Burgoyne, Lancaster University Management School and Henley Management College Management development is a potent and high-profile human resource activity, involving some of the organizations′ key players and attracting huge hopes and investments from governments, organizations and individuals alike. Yet at several levels, the high expectations often remain unfulfilled. So why is this a subject and activity that continues to command such intense interest from scholars and practitioners alike? Chris Mabey and Tim Finch-Lees provide a fresh analysis of the concept and practice of management and leadership development (MLD). Grounded in research, the authors set out the current state of management and leadership development practices, before introducing readers to competing theories of MLD and offering them a more critical perspective. Throughout the book, ideas are illustrated by international case studies and vignettes that evoke the perceptions and interests of the whole range of stakeholders in the management development process. Management Development has been written for upper level undergraduate and masters level students pursuing courses in HRM, HRD, Leadership Development, Organizational Behaviour, Management, Organization Change, Personnel Management, and training and development modules.

Download or read book Leadership written by Dr Mohamed -Ali Ibrahim and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-02-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We offer in this book the most important principles, methods, and modern mechanisms in the field of business administration aiming to arrive at the effective leadership conditions. The main element here is the communication and the ways to deal with the business team members to arrive at the best means that lead to the increase of productivity and to achieve the goals set by the top management from one side, and from the other side to achieve the reasonable aspirations and desires of the business team members, and hence elevating the moral spirit and the level of enthusiasm, as recent studies have proved the relation between the human self-achievement in team management and the increase of its productive effectiveness and hence of the entire team. We do not offer in this book some magical prescription to achieve the goals mentioned earlier, which principally do not exist, but we offer practical solutions from real life that include forms and methods that can be implemented that are actually used in the daily life of companies in support of the responsibility and role of the leadership. In other words, this book aims at deepening and identifying the principles of the modern concept of leadership based on which priorities are identifying and the role of leadership is identified in the encouragement of individuals and motivating them to perform better and more productively. So what is the knowledge required that should be possessed by the skillful leader in the daily professional life? A question that may seem easy, but if you searched accordingly for a sufficient answer you will be faced with a large amount of offers for specialized training and academic studies directed especially toward the leadership framework, and here it would become clear to you how hard it is to answer this question. Therefore, within the framework of the European Business Competence License, we must search and mine and highly focus in order to provide an educational guide for the third level of this global certificate where its principles of complete practical direction and the focus on case studies are suited to save time and effort exerted by the trainee to receive the most recent discoveries of the science of business administration in the field of leadership and its art, in spite of the business field, the size of the company, and the influencing circumstances surrounding the leadership process, and in spite of the geographical boundaries, as the science of leadership art is not affected by the boundaries of countries or their languages or their norms and traditions with their limited conception, meaning that now we have international criteria that at least determine the headlines and the important issues with this respect. Accordingly, the goal to provide a modern book that reflects the principles of the European Business Competence License with respect to the art of leadership and management was not to be achieved easily. This is because it is known among the public that an abundant amount of theories and global schools of the art of leadership, and the theories of motivation, and the principles and factors of the art of communication. We tend to receive not every year, but every month, numerous theories and new schools, in additional to the numerous and repetitive attempts to discover the "wheel" again, and we often rediscover that new findings are merely a different packaging for the same old findings. A Modern View of Human Resources 7 EBC*L Arab World What is important here is that we have focused on our goals when writing this book and we tried to exert the biggest effort to avoid such disturbances mentioned earlier and to stick to the rules of the game of the European Business Competence License in the field of the art of leadership, which are specifically as follows: Covering the requirements of the training content guide for Level C that was developed carefully.

This book was released on 1997-04-02 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Total quality management (TQM), reengineering, the workplace of the twenty-first centuryâ€"the 1990s have brought a sense of urgency to organizations to change or face stagnation and decline, according to Enhancing Organizational Performance. Organizations are adopting popular management techniques, some scientific, some faddish, often without introducing them properly or adequately measuring the outcome. Enhancing Organizational Performance reviews the most popular current approaches to organizational changeâ€"total quality management, reengineering, and downsizingâ€"in terms of how they affect organizations and people, how performance improvements can be measured, and what questions remain to be answered by researchers. The committee explores how theory, doctrine, accepted wisdom, and personal experience have all served as sources for organization design. Alternative organization structures such as teams, specialist networks, associations, and virtual organizations are examined. Enhancing Organizational Performance looks at the influence of the organization's norms, values, and beliefsâ€"its cultureâ€"on people and their performance, identifying cultural "levers" available to organization leaders. And what is leadership? The committee sorts through a wealth of research to identify behaviors and skills related to leadership effectiveness. The volume examines techniques for developing these skills and suggests new competencies that will become required with globalization and other trends. Mergers, networks, alliances, coalitionsâ€"organizations are increasingly turning to new intra- and inter-organizational structures. Enhancing Organizational Performance discusses how organizations cooperate to maximize outcomes. The committee explores the changing missions of the U.S. Army as a case study that has relevance to any organization. Noting that a musical greeting card contains more computing power than existed in the entire world before 1950, the committee addresses the impact of new technologies on performance. With examples, insights, and practical criteria, Enhancing Organizational Performance clarifies the nature of organizations and the prospects for performance improvement. This book will be important to corporate leaders, executives, and managers; faculty and students in organizational performance and the social sciences; business journalists; researchers; and interested individuals.

This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides an overview of the research on the changing nature of work and workers by marshalling interdisciplinary research to summarize the empirical evidence and provide documentation of what has actually changed. Connections are explored between the changing nature of work and macro-level trends in technological change, income inequality, global labor markets, labor unions, organizational forms, and skill polarization, among others. This edited volume also reviews evidence for changes in workers, including generational change (or lack thereof), that has accumulated across domains. Based on documented changes in work and worker behavior, the handbook derives implications for a range of management functions, such as selection, performance management, leadership, workplace ethics, and employee well-being. This evaluation of the extent of changes and their impact gives guidance on what best practices should be put in place to harness these developments to achieve success.
