Developing management skills

Whetten, David A. (David Allred), author.
Harlow, United Kingdom : Pearson Education Limited, [2024]

"Designed for individuals of all skill levels, Whetten and Cameron's Developing management skills focuses on what effective managers do consistently. The text is based on a pioneering, five-step 'active' learning model that helps aspiring managers translate academic theories and principles into personal practice. With this essential guide to hands-on management, Whetten and Cameron keep the emphasis firmly on employability and learning through self-analysis and practice. The tenth edition retains its focus on the personal, interpersonal, and group skills that are critical for successful management and leadership. Chapters feature contemporary examples of management challenges and effective practices; new skill assessments and cases; updated research; and tangible, relevant goals for students to work toward."--
