Management Is a Craft

Management is no matter of ideology, nor is it a question of fashion. Management is a craft - the universal and most important discipline of the 21st century. Fredmund Malik, the leading expert in the field of general management, provides you with the knowledge it takes to be a successful executive and manager, in any position, within any organisation.
Fredmund Malik shows what it means to be an effective manager, how ordinary people can achieve extraordinary feats, and what an executive job really entails. Candid and outspoken, Malik sweeps aside the widespread errors and misconceptions that distort our understanding of sound management, proving that professionalism is an acquired skill. Right and good management always follows the same basic principles, irrespective of position, organisation or culture. And above all: Management is a profession - not a vocation
Fredmund Malik's theory is system-oriented and can thus be applied regardless of time or place. It is designed to work in all areas and industries of any society, irrespective of changing trends or national and cultural differences. Taking as his point of departure the consistent traits displayed by complex systems - phenomena that executives and managers are likely to address on a daily basis - Malik sets the standard for sound management in a knowledge-based economy.
