Drawing from the pioneering contributions of Chester I. Barnard, this book defines the role and characteristics of an effective and efficient manager in the new knowledge economy. This book also examines the relevance of Barnard?s work on modern studies in economics and business administration. Chester I. Barnard considered the company to be a complex socio-economic system, oriented towards general aims. A company?s behavior is rational if its constituent elements and management models are planned, organized, guided and regulated in order to create and maintain a cooperative system that combines efficiency and effectiveness. In this book, the conceptual construction of Barnard?s management theory is represented by a synthetic scheme in which the various components of the business process (including leadership) and their influences on the outcome variables of the company are linked as a system. This approach makes this book appealing to academics, scholars and professionals in business, management, administration and knowledge management. 410 0$aInnovation, Technology, and Knowledge Management,$x2197-5698 606 $aLeadership 606 $aKnowledge management 606 $aSocial responsibility of business 606 $aBusiness Strategy/Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010 606 $aKnowledge Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515030 606 $aCorporate Social Responsibility$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/526010 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aKnowledge management. 615 0$aSocial responsibility of business. 615 14$aBusiness Strategy/Leadership. 615 24$aKnowledge Management. 615 24$aCorporate Social Responsibility. 676 $a658.4038 700 $aZanda$b Stefania$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0601407 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298189403321 996 $aBuilding Efficient Management and Leadership Practices$92543262 997 $aUNINA
