Description
Organizations can only perform at their best if their management is systemic, systematic, and stimulating. Systemic for effectiveness in an interconnected and complex environment, systematic for competitive efficiencies, stimulating to nurse innovation. This book shows managers how to apply these principles in the frame of a comprehensive process-of-management that connects managerial thinking, behaviour, and actions. Taking a cue from the experience of the best in class, the author presents an approach that integrates tools and techniques. Managers should find a roadmap they can follow to raise the quality of management all the way from the mission and strategic ambitions of the enterprise to the measure of its performances.
