The General Management Functions

Management is no matter of ideology, nor is it a question of fashion. Management is a craft - the universal and most important discipline of the 21st century. Fredmund Malik, the leading expert in the field of general management, provides you with the knowledge it takes to be a successful executive and manager, in any position, within any organisation.

In this part, Fredmund Malik explains the basic model of General Management. Every organization and every institution depends on the same core tasks and elements for its functioning. Malik shows how strategy, culture and structure interact in the sphere of corporate policy and governance, thus making their complex mechanisms transparent and understandable.

Fredmund Malik's theory is system-oriented and can thus be applied regardless of time or place. It is designed to work in all areas and industries of any society, irrespective of changing trends or national and cultural differences. Taking as his point of departure the consistent traits displayed by complex systems - phenomena that executives and managers are likely to address on a daily basis - Malik sets the standard for sound management in a knowledge-based economy.
