Sommario/riassunto

For Principles of Management courses.   The basics of management-and beyond.   Students often assume the role of a manager is no different than that of a traditional "boss"-someone who hires/fires, doles out raises/promotions, and tells employees what to do. Management takes students beyond these preconceived notions by exposing them to the full spectrum of management practices and concepts that will help them succeed as managers in today's business world.
