Description
Working in Organisations explores how organisations adapt to changing environments and the role of their people in achieving this. As society evolves, so too must an organisation's management competencies.
The book examines the operational and strategic skills, demands and responsibilities of modern workforces, including the manager's new priorities, motivation, teamworking, and leadership. It also discusses how power and politics can be used to positive advantage, highlighting governance and ethics concerns.
By understanding the challenges facing organisations, this book aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the ultimate purpose and contribution of organisations, and how their design can focus resources to achieve desired ends.
