100+ Management Models: How to understand and apply the world's most powerful business tools

Rate this book
Fashions in business thinking change abruptly. The way we think about leadership, for instance, has shifted radically from the genius of great entrepreneurs like Rockefeller, Carnegie and Ford, through leadership as a science, leadership that releases human potential, the leader as strategist and warrior, customer champion, globalist and shareholder advocate, to, more recently, leadership as stewardship of the environment. Hundreds of models have been developed to track, measure and forecast business solutions, but as fashions shift how can we apply them in real organizations that have to succeed outside the classroom? 100+ Management Models gives a quick overview of each of the most important models in nine different categories: sustainability, innovation, strategy, diversity, customers, human resources, benchmarking, leadership and implementation. At the end of each section there is a summary of the key dilemmas that tend to emerge from the particular function.

A massively cool bird-view summary of a bunch of models and a lot more.

Evolution is shown in the following stages:
- The Great Entrereneurs.
- 'Scientific management'. Q: While managing scientifically and mass production raised productivity by 100% or more, it ran into the problem that human beings rarely do precisely as they are told and often arrange to defy expectations.(c)
- Human potential. The Hawthorne effect. This is what we have to thank for the appearance of all the lackluster HR sycophants. Hats off!
- The art of war. Hello, Cold War! Nice to meet you Sun Tzu!

First let me explain why I read this book: it was compulsory. At the end of the semester we were tested on all 100 models.
This immediately biased me for the book. I mean having to learn 100 models and know them inside-out isn't really a fun way to spend your time. But all in all it's not the worst study book I had. Some of the models are a bit thin and there are a couple of weird sentence structures. I also found that in the "essence" the essence of the model wasn't alway explained properly. Also some of the pictures of the models were a bit vague.
Still, I learned a lot.

Читал эту книгу целый год, и она оказалось полезней с каждый новой главой. Сначала мне не очень зашли модели на тему созранения природы и всего остального (тема важная, непонятно почему в модель менеджмента), но под конец они соединились с тем как управлять предприятием и людьми и оказались в одной лодке.
Рекомендую прочитать самостоятельно, потому что эта книга не смотря на свой размер всего лишь выжимка всех обозначенных моделей.

A nice book that summarizes the bibliography about management models. Unfortunately the information for each model is very condensed that it's difficult to understand the full concept without reading the related books.

Сборник бизнес теорий, моделей и инструментов, сгруппированных в несколько общих категорий. Авторы пересказывают их в сокращенном и упрощенном виде, показывают взаимосвязи. Хороший обзорный материал для понимания всей области.

For all those ambitious people who wants to finish reading the HBR, this could be your first book to understanding the management models furthered by the HBR: it is concise, well illustrated and unambiguous on all the management models listed in it. However, a caveat here is that the explanation that were put forward are sometimes over simplistic. It would be a lovely book to add to your collection as light reading.

Outstanding reference of frameworks, models and methods for strategy, managing, goal setting, culture and communication. This offers an universal taxonomy of pretty much all successfully applied heuristics and frameworks. A must-have quick reference for business- and mind- expansion.
