Synopsis
In this exploration of the function of management, the author focuses on how companies work, challenging traditional assumptions from a grass roots point of view. He answers questions such as how do organizations function and structure themselves?, how do their power relationships develop and their goals form? and by what processes do managers make important strategic decisions'. He shows how the elements for successful business strategy is rarely born in solitary contemplation suggesting that they often come together in the heat of battle.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
