Understanding Organizations

Author: Charles Handy


Description

This classic text offers an illuminating discussion of key concepts of concern to all managers: culture, motivation, leadership, power, role-playing and working in groups. Ever mindful of actual business practice, Handy directly addresses how managers can translate the six main concepts into invaluble tools for effective management.


Review

A brilliantly insightful, wide-ranging look at business organisations. Provides a lot of insight about how organisations actually work (as opposed to how people think they work).
