Management

by Ricky W. Griffin

Introduce your students to management using the classic theory, current research, student-friendly presentation, and memorable examples in Griffin's MANAGEMENT -- the book that has already helped almost two million students prepare for successful business careers. This powerful, leading text combines traditional management coverage with well-known, careful examination of today's emerging management topics. The new 10th edition of MANAGEMENT now examines the latest on organizational justice and negotiation as well as the impact of the 2008-2009 economic recession and global warming on business. The book's well-organized, inviting approach organized around the functions of management helps students strengthen their management skills with an effective balance of theory and practice as well as numerous proven learning features. Students continue to study the growing service sector, ethics, global management and the impact of technology on management as they examine challenges today's managers face. Hundreds of well-researched popular examples -- from large establishments, such as Coca-Cola, to emerging companies such as Google and Facebook -- bring concepts to life. Examples from smaller companies and non-profit organizations underscore the author's philosophy that strong management is critical to the success of any type of organization.

Finished my reading of this textbook. As far as textbooks go, I found the information valuable and better than some I have read. It is a relief to know I don't have to read anymore textbooks for awhile!

This book is definitely helping with my HR studies...
It is a very nice textbook that digs in deeper into the aspect of business management, the only criticism I guess is the size of the book - it's not a "standard" size book - it's big, and really heavy.

Griffin is a Master of Management. This thick book is very well written, graphically organised and full of contemporary examples.

The text is definitely dry, but if you can get through it, there is a lot of valuable information in here.
