Description
Book SynopsisLeadership and Management Development provides the perfect blend of critical and practice-based approaches, encouraging learning through examples to support academic, practical and personal development. The organizationally-based cases and questions will allow students to use relevant skills and learn through reflection on their own experience.
Trade ReviewStudents will like this book, because it offers a highly processed analysis which introduces important contextual influences and deals explicitly with the Management Development 'things' their organisations do. * Dr Michael Clark, Senior Lecturer, University of the West of England *
The authors use international case studies as well as UK ones, which is of paramount importance today. * Dr David Bright, Senior Lecturer in HRM and Director of Postgraduate Programmes, Hull University Business School *
The text is well-written and accessible, yet also highly developed, demonstrating familiarity with contemporary MD practices and issues. The chapters cover a broad range and diversity of theory which is well summarised with clarity and appropriate brevity. * Kate Black, University of Chester *
