Global Management: Universal Theories and Local Realities

Editat de Stewart R Clegg, Eduardo Ibarra Colado, Luis Bueno-Rodriquez
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 dec 1998
This book re-examines management theory `after Globalization'. Combining key names and studies from across the world, it explores the local realities that resist universal theories and that permeate the daily lives of practising managers. The book provides a comprehensive and critical reflection on the widely documented phenomenon of globalization in business. It assesses the implications of the diversity of individual economies and enterprises for general theories of management and concludes by presenting new approaches to the study and research of management and organizations.

Descriere

Global Management provides a critical reflection on the widely documented phenomenon of globalization in business, and assesses the implications of the diversity of individual economies and enterprises for general theories of management. The contributors: deconstruct the myth of global management universalism;{ explore the problems of universal strategies and the role of local values; show how theoretical and methodological constructs, such as TQM and Metaphors, work as universal truths and classifications that obscure local realities; and present new approaches to the study and research of management and organizations.
