Managing Through Organization

Managing Through Organization by Colin Hales

This innovative text provides a comprehensive and balanced review of approaches to work organization in one accessible volume. By synthesising a number of theories, Colin Hales concludes that organizations are essentially an attempt to manage on a large scale. He then applies this coherent 'managing through organization' framework to a comprehensive range of topics.
