Description

The quest to improve managerial performance has led to considerable work on defining and developing management competences. This book examines some of these initiatives and highlights the innovative thought and creative energy that is being applied to the development of tomorrow's managers. Practical examples are provided and the whole text is built on the work presented at a conference organized by the Association of Management Education and Development (AMED) and Ashridge Management Research Group.
