Description
Book SynopsisThis book presents a research project that was carried out to develop leadership and organisational structures in accordance with the requirements created by different professional backgrounds within the aviation industry. The research outcomes open the door to a new and important element of cultural research, complementary to those of organisational and national cultures.
Trade Review'Marc-Philippe Lumpé addresses his book not only to scholars but also to a large variety of practitioners, i.e. senior management, Human Resources and experts in organizational change. The research outcomes enrich cultural research and although the results were obtained in aviation, they could also transfer to the large variety of professions taken into account.'
