Organizational Behaviour Organizational Behaviour

4th Edition

Performance Management in Practice

Organizational Behavior

Richard Pettinger, University College London, UK

Integrating Individuals, Groups, and Organizations

Joseph Champoux

This book offers a fresh and comprehensive approach to the essentials that constitute the discipline of organizational behaviour with a strong emphasis on the application of organizational behaviour and performance management in practice.

It concentrates on the development of effective patterns of behaviour, values and attitudes, and relates these issues to effective organization performance in times of organizational and environmental change and turbulence. The book is divided into four parts, providing a clear structure for the study of the subject: • Part 1: The Context of Organizational Behaviour • Part 2: The Disciplines of Organizational Behaviour

The fourth edition of Organizational Behaviour: Integrating Individuals, Groups and Organizations is a well-organized introduction to the current field of organizational behavior with in-depth coverage of the most critical concepts. Its practical approach shows the power of organizational behavior theory for understanding one’s behavior and the behavior of others in any organization. Although firmly grounded in behavioral science theory and research, the text is not a compendium of research findings. Champoux includes examples and builds frameworks that make the material clear and easy to understand. The concise format allows the text to be used as a primer or to be supplemented with additional cases, readings, or exercises. More interactive than in previous editions, this text provides students with several online features to reinforce their knowledge of chapter content with exercises, practice and other learning opportunities. An extraordinary supplementary package, all prepared by the author, is innovative and extensive in its content.

John A. Wagner III and John R. Hollenbeck, both at Michigan State University, USA

Although the management of organizational behavior’s importance should be evident, students often don’t take the course that seriously. One common student response is that organizational behavior is nothing more than common sense. The field of organizational behavior is a valuable source of practical insight that managers can use to improve the workings of their own firms and to thrive where others might fail. Other textbook authors have avoided deep coverage and failed to build any sense of challenge.

John Wagner and John Hollenbeck avoid these pitfalls and challenge students on many levels. They have made the key connection between theory and practice and understand students can excel when challenged to learn something meaningful. Organizational Behavior is written to motivate exceptional student performance. The content requires the student to think and take seriously organizational behavior and why its importance is one of the keys to securing competitive advantage.

Performance is the reason why organizations exist. Through performance organizations meet the needs of internal and external stakeholders as defined by their mission, goals and objectives. This is true for all organizations. If a retailer won’t stock goods a customer wants, the customer will shop elsewhere. If a religious organization does not meet the needs of its followers, they leave. If a cult doesn’t meet the needs of its memberships they seek their goal fulfillment elsewhere.

If a manufacturing center can’t produce goods that meet customer standards, the customer will reject it.

Complexity theory, a tool used to examine the nature of dynamic systems like organizations, can contribute to our understanding of organizations and ways to improve their performance. The models and material outlined in the book illustrate ways competency and organizational programs, processes and procedures are used to manage emerging risks, threats and vulnerabilities that challenge today’s organizations. Collectively this information enables the identification of individual organization profiles as a way to advance our understanding of an important theory, complexity, in an applied setting -- organizations.

Unique typologies describing organizations (four types), events that effect organizations (six types) and the fundamental structure for organizations are presented to enable the forecasting of an organization’s capacity to manage different events as they emerge and how behavior organizes around these events. Academicians studying organizations and practitioners interested in improving them can use this information to facilitate baseline, descriptive thinking and analysis or more sophisticated examinations aimed at understanding the dynamic nature of organizations as fully functioning systems.

At the heart of the effort is the examination of what it takes to get the performance needed to achieve a vision or mission and why, despite planning, training and evaluation, few organizations can guarantee or maintain desired levels of performance when faced with events, routine to extreme, that shape their existence. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding how knowledge, evaluation, information and, communication management practices need to be tailored to fit particular organizations rather than treated as a ’one size fits all’ approach. These are not limited, theoretical discussions but are presented as ways to efficiently talk about an individual organization’s profile or competencies within a class of, or in contrast to, other organizations.

The Ambidextrous Organization

Complexity and Organizational Reality

The Routledge Companion to Organizational Change

The Strategic Management of Learning, Knowledge, and Innovation Patrick Reinmoeller, Erasmus Universiteit, Rotterdam, the Netherlands

There is a growing interest in ‘ambidextrous’ organizations that can achieve harmony between the opposing demands they face internally and externally (such as exploration and exploitation; change and stability; customization and standardization; the development of new competencies and further refinement of existing ones).

This interest is being fuelled by a wider debate and interest in learning and knowledge as engines of organizational growth and sustainable competitive advantage.

Numerous books on organizational learning and knowledge management have appeared in recent years.

However, none combines strategy, learning, knowledge, and innovation into a single coherent framework of ambidexterity. This book explores insights from the extensive body of research that has been conducted over the last few years into the issues of exploratory versus exploitative learning, and how to manage the two within the context of an ambidextrous organization. It goes beyond the usual focus on intangible concepts and ideas relating to learning and knowledge, and identifies actionable responses to contextual challenges, and how to develop an ambidextrous firm.

Accessible and practical, this significant text explains key principles, with emphasis on developing students’ understanding of organizational learning, knowledge, innovation, and ambidexterity, and combines them with real-life company examples to illustrate the practical application, utility, and limitations of concepts and theories. For students of strategic management, organizational behaviour and knowledge management this is essential reading.

Selected Contents: Part 1: An Introductory Overview 1. Organizations, Strategic Management, and Organizational Learning Part 2: Learning, Knowledge and Innovation 2. Organizational Learning: The Concept and Process 3. Organization Learning: Routines, Strategic Management, and Value Creation 4. Learning and Knowledge 5. Knowledge, Innovation and Adaptation Part 3: The Tensions and Tradeoffs of Exploration and Exploitation 6. Exploration and Exploitation Approaches to Organizational Learning 7. Managing the Search for Knowledge in Multidimensional Space Part 4: The Ambidexterous Organization 8. Combining Exploration and Exploitation 9. Developing an Ambidexterous Organization

Uncertainty and the Need to Rethink Management after the Collapse of Investment Capitalism Ralph D. Stacey, University of Hertfordshire, UK

Approaches to leadership and management are still dominated by prescriptions – usually claimed as scientific – for top executives to choose the future direction of their organization.

The global financial recession and the collapse of investment capitalism (surely not planned by anyone) make it quite clear that top executives are simply not able to choose future directions. Despite this, current management literature mostly continues to avoid the obvious – management’s inability to predict or control what will happen in the future. The key question now must be how we are to think about management if we take the uncertainty of organizational life seriously.

Ralph Stacey has turned to the sciences of uncertainty and complexity to develop an understanding of leadership and management as the ordinary politics of daily organizational life. In presenting organizations as a series of complex responsive processes, Stacey’s new book helps us to see organizational reality for what it actually is – human beings engaged in many, many local conversational interactions and power relations in which they negotiate their ideologically based choices.

Organizational continuity and change emerge unpredictably, rather than as a result of any overall plan.

This is a radically different picture from the one painted by most of the management literature, which explains ’organizational continuity and change’ as the realization of the global plans and choices of a few powerful executives within an organization.

Providing a new foundation for understanding complexity and management, this important book is required reading for managers and leaders wanting to understand the reality of complexity in organizations, including those engaged in postgraduate studies in leadership, organizational behaviour and change management.

They grow, they adapt, they evolve. The effects of organizational change are important, varied and complex and analyzing and understanding them is vital for students, academics and researchers in all business schools.

The Routledge Companion to Organizational Change offers a comprehensive and authoritative overview of the field. The volume brings together the very best contributors not only from the field of organizational change, but also from adjacent fields, such as strategy and leadership. These contributors offer fresh and challenging insights to the mainstream themes of this discipline.

Surveying the state of the discipline and introducing new, cutting-edge themes, this book is a valuable reference source for students and academics in this area.

Praise for the previous edition:

’Leadership in Organizations is a particularly thoughtprovoking book... Storey and his collaborators have performed a valuable service by providing us with a more practical route through what often seems like an almost impenetrable forest of leadership scholarship and debates.’ - The Journal of Industrial Relations

’A useful, well-written, well-edited and thoughtprovoking book.’ - Human Resource Management Journal Leadership has proven a tricky beast to pin down and the subject has been approached from a variety of perspectives over the years. The beauty of this textbook lies in its role as an illustrative guide though the wilds of an elusive discipline.

Understanding Leadership in the Real World

We live in a leadership obsessed society. The result is that we assume nearly any social or economic ill can be mended through better leadership. This commitment to leadership is sometimes followed by hero worshipping, wishful thinking and misplaced hope.

Seeking to understand the faith we place in leadership, the authors draw on a number of in-depth studies of managers trying to ’do’ leadership. Six metaphors for the leader are presented: as gardener, cosy-crafter, saint, cyborg, commander and bully. Some of these offer unexpected insights into how leadership does and does not work. The book sheds light on a varied, often contradictory and sometimes darker, side of leadership.

Cutting through the management-speak drenched current literature on leadership, Understanding Leadership presents an enlightening understanding of an important topic which will be useful reading for students and researchers, as well as the thinking manager.

This second edition of Leadership in Organizations: Current Issues and Key Trends offers a balanced combination of theory and practice to provide an up-to-date account of this multi-faceted topic. Looking at the international and comparative aspects of leadership, Storey also discusses new modes of leadership that will be required to steer organizations to success in a recessive environment.

Leadership Insight Nancy J. Adler, McGill University, Canada

• inspire others.

Based on these four fundamental leadership capacities, and drawing from a range of artistic traditions, Nancy J. Adler has created a Leadership Insight journal.

Combining paintings, insights from world leaders, reflective questions, and most importantly, blank pages, the journal is designed to draw managers away from their often frenzied lives and to return them to a deeper dialectic with their influence, and potential influence, on the world. By reintroducing a daily practice of reflection, the journal offers leaders the quiet and contemplation it takes to be wise.

Demystifying Business Celebrity Eric Guthey, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark, Timothy Clark, University of Durham, UK and Brad Jackson, University of Auckland, New Zealand

Business celebrities such as Bill Gates, Richard Branson and Rupert Murdoch are among the most widely recognised, admired and sometimes even vilified individuals in the world.

Like their celebrity peers from the entertainment, sports, arts and political worlds, business celebrities exert an influence that is pervasive, but difficult to assess, evaluate and explain.

Business celebrities have been around for as long as big business itself, but this is the first book to provide a systematic exploration of how they are constructed and why they exist. Business celebrities include entrepreneurs, CEOs, and management gurus. The book argues that these individuals are not self-made, but rather are created by a process of widespread media exposure to the point that their actions, personalities and even private lives function symbolically to represent significant dynamics and tensions prevalent in the contemporary business environment.

Demystifying Business Celebrity raises questions about the impact and significance of the production of celebrity upon our understanding of, and our ability to promote the practice of leadership in an enlightened manner. The book will prove a useful addition to the enlightened business student’s bookshelf and will be informative reading for all those with an interest in business and management.

The Last Male Bastion

New

Gender and the CEO Suite in America’s Public Companies

Computational Analysis of Firms’ Organization and Strategic Behaviour

Douglas M. Branson, University of Pittsburgh, USA

The Last Male Bastion is the first systematic approach to the subject why, proportionately, so few women occupy seats of power in today’s public companies. The book examines • a well-defined group (not random) • defined by the single most important criteria, success • with success defined in one and only one way, as promotion to CEO of a Fortune 500 corporation.

The book examines carefully the careers and experiences of 19 women who actually have ’made it,’ female CEOs who have been (beyond peradventure) successful.

Edoardo Mollona, University of Bologna, Italy Series: Routledge Research in Strategic Management This book addresses possible applications of computer simulation to theory building in management and organizational theory. The key hypothesis is that modelling and computer simulation provide an environment to develop, test and articulate theoretical propositions. In general, computer simulation provides an experimental environment where researchers are able to play with symbolic representations of phenomena by modifying the model’s structure and activating or deactivating model’s parameters. This environment allows to both generating hypotheses to ex post explain observed phenomena or to ex ante generate distributions of unrealized events thereby envisioning areas for further empirical investigations.

Under a methodological perspective, the volume investigates logics and techniques to design a research strategy grounded on computer simulation. In particular, the articles in the book concentrate on two different techniques, and philosophies, to set up a simulation study: System Dynamics, which is grounded on differential equations and feedback theory, and agent-based modeling. The book describes how computer simulation helps to look into research issues typical to strategic management and organizational theory. In this respect, such themes as firms’ diversification strategies, competitive strategy, rivalry and the impact of role dynamics on organizational performances are explored through the lenses of computer simulation models.

European Works Councils and Industrial Relations An Institution in Process Jeremy Waddington, University of Manchester, UK The creation of European Works Councils is arguably the most important measure taken in global industrial relations in recent years. Adopted with the primary goal of facilitating European-level workers’ participation in information-sharing and consultation in multinational companies, EWCs have also been central to a wide-ranging process of institution-building at the European level. European Works Councils charts the growth in the number of EWCs and the development of practices associated with EWCs between 1994, when legislation on EWCs was adopted, and 2009, when the initial legislation was amended. Drawing on original, large-scale, survey data, the book shows that the quality of information and consultation is generally poor, thus bringing into question the soft touch legislative approach to employee participation of the European Commission.

The reforms implemented within trade union organizations to accommodate the development of EWCs are explored, together with the initiatives taken to extend the role of EWCs beyond information and consultation to incorporate negotiation. Articulation between EWCs and trade union organizations is shown to be integral to EWCs as institutions of information and consultation, and as a means to influence managerial decision-making. Similarly, the development of EWCs is shown to be a process contested by employers’ organizations and managers on the one hand and labour organizations on the other. The character of this contestation ensures that the category ‘EWC’ includes a wide range of institutional forms and practices.

Selected Contents: 1. Setting the Scene 2. The Articulation Activities of European Industry Federations 3. EWC Agreements: The Impact of the Directive on Coverage, Barriers and Content 4.

Visual Culture in Organizations

Performative Imagery in Organizations

Alexander Styhre, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden ’In this excellent book, Styhre displays an impressive depth of knowledge while developing new and exciting epistemological pathways in relation to visual culture. This is not only an important book for business administrators and organizational theorists, but for all of us living in a connected world. This is simply one of the best books of its kind in the field.’ – Mats Edenius, Uppsala University, Sweden Vision and visuality are two concepts widely discussed and debated in philosophy and social science literature.

Some authors even suggest that the entire Western intellectual tradition is strongly shaped by the paradigm of vision; the inspection and analysis of specimens collected from social reality are regarded as the only legitimate source of truth. However, in organizations, a variety of visual practices are employed for science-based innovation in for instance the pharmaceutical industry and in architect work. Such visual practices include the use of various technoscientific machinery and tools to more mundane uses of full-scale models and photos in architect work. In comparison to the various linguistic perspectives on organizations, vision and visuality remain surprisingly little theorized and examined in the organization literature.

Visual Culture in Organizations offers an introduction to the literature on vision and visuality that is relevant to organizational theory (comparing and contrasting it to the well-documented area of linguistic theory in organizations), proposing a theoretical framework for visual culture in organizations, and providing empirical illustrations to the theoretical framework. The book shows that visual practices are a central procedure in the day-to-day routines of organizations and are long overdue for close examination.

Selected Contents: Part 1: Epistemologies of Vision 1. Introduction: From the Lexical to the Visual 2. The Visual Turn in Social Science and Organization Theory Part 2: Practices of Seeing 3.

Storytelling and Antenarrative in Organizations Edited by David M. Boje, New Mexico State University, USA Pioneering thinker in organizational communication David Boje here compiles a collection of new essays on the theme of ‘antenarrative,’ or non-linear narrative, as applied to organizations and business, bringing together different approaches and philosophical interpretations of the concept. The essays combine a strong theoretical background with empirical cases as diverse as Wal-mart, information systems, and Nordic banking.

Organization and management studies have overwhelmingly focused to date on rational narrative structures with beginnings, middles, and ends, where narrative has proved to be a handy concept in qualitative studies – such as in the analysis of interviews or in understanding an organization’s history and identity. Far less attention is given however to the more spontaneous and ‘non-staged’ storytelling that occurs in organizations. The collective and joint storytelling of everyday conversations and interactions in business is less well understood, but is arguably vital to an organization’s dynamics and ability to cope with change.

Edited by Paolo Quattrone, Christ Church, Oxford University, UK, Nigel Thrift, University of Warwick, Chris McLean, University of Manchester, UK and Francois-Regis Puyou, Audencia, Nantes Management School, France The modern business relies extensively upon myriad images and pictorial representations such as budgets, schedules, reports, graphs, and organizational charts.

Visual images play such an integral role in the process of organizing that many modern managers have come to take them for granted. This book provides a new disciplinary space in which to experiment and capture the significant role that images and other forms of engagements play in the performance of the organizational activities that make business possible.

Images are often seen as simple representations of what happens in organisations: thus financial reports are believed to enable readers to see the ‘true and fair view’ of a firm’s financial transactions. Contributions to this volume challenge this orthodox view to explore how images in business, organizing and organizations are ’performative’ rather than simply representational, viewed in a static and rigid form. Imagining Business addresses the question of how we visualise organizations and their activities as an important aspect of managerial work, focusing on practices and performances, organizing and ordering, and media and technologies.

Moreover, it aims to provide a focal point for the growing collection of studies that explore how various business artefacts draw on the power of the visual to enable various forms of organizing and organizations in diverse contexts.

The ideas it describes forge connections between the justice literature and other prominent bodies of knowledge in organizational and social psychology, including those pertaining to trust, social identity, attribution theory, regulatory focus theory and cross-cultural differences in people’s beliefs and behaviors. Though intended primarily for researchers, this book is written in a very accessible way, so that informed practitioners will gain considerable value from it.

Insidious Workplace Behavior

Sports Management and Administration

Edited by Jerald Greenberg

Series: Applied Psychology Series Insidious Workplace Behavior (IWB) refers to low-level, pervasive acts of deviance directed at individual or organizational targets. Because of its inherently stealthy nature, scientists have paid little attention to IWB, allowing us to know very little about it. With this book, that is now changing.

The present volume—the first to showcase this topic— presents original essays by top organizational scientists who share the most current thinking about IWB. Contributors examine, for example, the many forms that IWB takes, focusing on its antecedents, consequences, and moderators. They also highlight ways that organizational leaders can manage and constrain IWB so as to attenuate its adverse effects.

And to promote both theory and practice in IWB, contributors also discuss the special problems associated with researching IWB and strategies for overcoming them.

Managing Your Competencies

Introduction to Problem-Based Learning

Personal Development Plan

Jos Moust, P. Bouhuijs and Hans Schmidt

Roel Grit

This book will help you understand a popular learning method. It enables students and teachers to experience the full potential of Problem-based Learning.

Introduction to Problem-based Learning pays particular attention to the skills students need to operate within as well as outside Problem-based groups.

A competency is a combination of knowledge, skills and attitude that one needs in order to function adequately in any given professional situation – a nurse must know how to give a crying child a vaccination, and a policeman must be able to stop a drunken brawl.

Competency orientated teaching has become an important objective in higher education. To meet this objective, an individual personal development plan (PDP) is indispensable. PDPs are based on what one knows about one’s own skills and what one needs to acquire for one’s future profession. Managing Your Competencies shows the reader how to go about drawing up a PDP. Selected Contents: 1. What is Competency Management?

2. Who Am I? 3. What Can I Do as an Individual? 4. What Can I do in a Team? 5. What Do I Want to Become? 6. Tools 2009: 234 x 156: 153pp Pb: 978-9-0017-6363-3: $43.95

Managing Professionals

Theory, Case Studies, and Legal Challenges Martha Reeves

Hans de Bruijn, Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands

This book uniquely combines gender theory, case studies, and the legal challenges surrounding the mechanisms of gender discrimination at work. It provides the student with real-life examples from managers (based on interviews with people who experienced discrimination) that help students understand how gender discrimination operates, even when there are legal protections against it. At the end of each case study, students are asked to put themselves in the shoes of the individual experiencing the discrimination and ask themselves to reflect on how they would handle the situation. Students must examine their own beliefs about gender and work place practices and consider consequences of actions they might take.

In addition to the sections of theory, cases, and legal challenges, websites of interest are included, as are student assignments and classroom activities.

Managing Professionals deals with the tensions between managers and professionals within organizations, such as hospitals, universities, banks and judicial organizations. Often managers rely heavily on the skills and expertise of the professionals in their organizations, yet these professionals consider management a source of bureaucracy and paperwork.

Overcoming the challenges of developing and training such a workforce requires the ability to bridge diverse working, learning and communication styles.

In contrast with conventional organizational approaches to international HRD, International Human Resource Development: A Leadership Perspective explores workforce development from a personal perspective, challenging practitioners to develop their own leadership, learning and communication skills. As a point of departure, the book uses a demographic analysis of the workforces of a number of key countries in order to examine cultural implications for training and development, and for best practice.

Drawing on a unique anthropological perspective and complete with case studies, exercises and an extensive glossary this text will prove an important resource for students of human resource development, human resource management and international business.

Coaching Models: A Cultural Perspective A Guide to Model Development: For Practitioners and Students of Coaching Diane Lennard, New York University, USA

’In addition to providing an extensive analysis of strategies for changing performance and the factors that can impact coaching effectiveness, this book offers what may be a unique value: instead of promoting one approach as the best, Dr. Lennard guides readers through a highly customized process of developing our own individualized coaching model. As a result of the book’s thought-provoking activities, I strengthened my own sense of personal authenticity and saw new ways to coach and collaborate fully with employees who may have very different perspectives.’ – Tita Theodora Beal, Learning & Development, Pfizer, Inc. ’This is a wise book. The essential take-away is simple and profound. Develop, refine, and apply your own (as in ownership) personalized coaching model. Much is provided; nothing is imposed.

Readers are invited to reflect on unique and defining experiences, strengths, values, perspectives and style and to begin creating their own ‘work in progress.’ Coaching Models will be a compelling read for experienced coaches and new coach practitioners alike.’ – Bethene LeMahieu, Ed.D.; Professional Coach and Conversation Conservationist Coaching Models encourages and assists students and practitioners of business coaching to develop and apply their own coaching models. The entire field of coaching will benefit from having coaches who use their models to continually improve their practice.

The first part of this book presents the model development process by looking at the relationship among culture, beliefs, and behavior in the coaching context. It explains the importance of identifying cultural factors that influence the way coaches approach coaching interactions, and their coaching models.

The second section provides coaches with information and strategies for developing personalized coaching models, applying them to specific contexts, and reflecting on their interactions to refine their core coaching practices.

The third part describes the evolution of the author’s own coaching model—the Performance Coaching Model—and illustrates how one coach incorporates unique perspectives and sets of skills, knowledge, and experience in her coaching practice.

Workplace Learning Concepts, Measurement and Application Edited by Marianne van Woerkom and Rob Poell, both at Tilburg University, the Netherlands ’A significant ensemble of workplace learning articles by leading international authors that will make a notable contribution to the field.’ - David McGuire, Queen Margaret University, UK This edited volume aims to evaluate the promises of workplace learning by addressing the following related questions: What are current developments in theory that informs workplace learning research? How can learning in the workplace be measured? What is the impact of various organizational settings (e.g. team-based work and call centres) on workplace learning? Which are the promising new avenues for research? And which research-based recommendations can be made to boost learning opportunities in various work contexts? The topic is conceptualized as an interaction between the individual and the work context, as a combination of individual and collective processes, as a link between cognition and action, and as a political process.

With a wide array of contributions from academics such as Stephen Billet, Tara Fenwick and Victoria Marsick, this volume will be an important research and reference tool with all those academics and practitioners who are interested in the field of human resource development.

Targeted at researchers, (post) graduate students, and reflective practitioners and managers interested in the area, ’Workplace Learning’ provides must-read material for anyone wanting to advance the theory, research, and/or practice of learning in the workplace.

Managing Healthy Organizations Worksite Health Promotion and the New Self-Management Paradigm Mikael Holmqvist and Christian Maravelias, both at Stockholm University, Sweden During the past two decades, corporate management has come to take an active role in health promotion programming for employees, offering health education, screenings, therapy, and even leisure initiatives. However, little attention has been given to how contemporary worksite health programs in fact blur the traditional distinction between work and private life. This has resulted in little research on the other side of the work-health nexus: how employers factor health considerations into workforce management and productivity control.

With the advancement of ’work-site health promotion’ in contemporary organizations, Holmqvist and Maravelias argue that this narrow focus, and the typical uncritical standpoint towards initiatives which are taken in the name of employees’ health, is inadequate. At a more fundamental level, the advancement of work-site health promotion may be a sign of a new or altered corporate health ethic: in contrast to the old corporate health ethic that was narrow and specific to the workplace, the new corporate health ethic appears to judge the ‘whole employee’ and especially what the whole employee may become; the risks one faces and the abilities one has to shoulder the responsibility for developing into a real corporate value. The authors suggest that health experts’ work is closely aligned with problems relating to the general management of organizations. Through a focused appraisal of this central albeit neglected occupational group in management studies, this book tries to explore and understand in some depth situations and experiences that are of general interest and concern in our society.

Peter Sloane, Paul Latreille, Nigel O’Leary and Philip Murphy, all at University of Wales, UK

’For both its empirical and its theoretical content, this book is an essential addition to the libraries of scholars of gender, of work/life balance, and of what the editors prefer to call ‘precariousness in employment’ - Anne Junor, University of New South Wales, Australia

Precarious employment presents a monumental challenge to the social, economic, and political stability of labour markets in industrialized societies and there is widespread consensus that its growth is contributing to a series of common social inequalities, especially along the lines of gender and citizenship.

The editors argue that these inequalities are evident at the national level across industrialized countries, as well as at the regional level within federal societies, such as Canada, Germany, the United States, and Australia and in the European Union. This book brings together contributions addressing this issue which include case studies exploring the size, nature, and dynamics of precarious employment in different industrialized countries and chapters examining conceptual and methodological challenges in the study of precarious employment in comparative perspective.

The collection aims to yield new ways of understanding, conceptualizing, measuring, and responding, via public policy and other means – such as new forms of union organization and community organizing at multiple scales – to the forces driving labour market insecurity.

This new textbook is the first properly international textbook to reflect these changes. Its key areas of concentration include: • the increasing importance of human capital including education and occupational choice • the major subdivision of personnel economics including economic inactivity and absenteeism • comparative cross country studies and the impact of globalization and migration on national labour markets • equal opportunities and issues of discrimination on the basis of race, gender and disability.

Other issues explored include the supply and demand of labour, wages, the current role of trade unions and working time. The book is written in a clear, accessible way with some mathematical exposition, reflecting the text’s grounding in current microeconomic theory.

Labour economics as a discipline has changed dramatically in recent years. Gone are the days of a ’job for life’. These days, firms and employees are part of a less regulated, more fluid, and more international labour market and knowledge, training, human resource development and human capital are all major factors on the contemporary scene.

Edited by James L. Farr, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, USA and Nancy T. Tippins, Valtera Corporation, Greenville, South Carolina, USA

The Handbook of Employee Selection summarizes the state of science and practice in the field of employee selection.

Chapters in this book cover issues associated with measurement such as validity and reliability as well as practical concerns around the development of appropriate selection procedures and implementation of selection programs. Several chapters discuss the measurement of various constructs commonly used as predictors, and other chapters confront criterion measures that are used in test validation. Ethical and legal concerns are dealt with in another set of chapters and highlight the concerns of the employer as well as the test taker and the psychologist responsible for the testing program. Final sections of the book include chapters that focus on testing for certain types of jobs (e.g., blue collar jobs, supervisory jobs) and describe important milestones in the development of selection programs.

That the theory makes intuitive sense and that the data fit the theory is just a bonus. I expect that this new, systematic approach to this important topic will attract scholars from many disciplines.’ Rafael di Tella, Harvard Business School, USA This landmark text provides an overview of the new understanding of leadership that has emerged in the last two decades in social and organizational psychology, as part of the development of self-categorization and social identity theories. The New Psychology of Leadership advances the argument that leadership is a group process grounded in the creation, management and control of group identity — a shared sense of ‘us’.

Management History Text and Cases Morgen Witzel, University of Exeter, UK

Routledge International Studies in Business History

Management History is not simply a book about the history of business or even the history of management. The goal of this book is to demonstrate that despite the relative newness of management science as an academic subject, management has been around since ancient times. Through understanding the history of management - both in practice and theory - one is able to approach the complex and challenging problems of modern management from a new perspective.

Series edited by: Ray Stokes, University of Glasgow, UK and Matthias Kipping, York University, Canada

The book not only traces the development of management from history to the present day, but also examines the way this evolution impacts how management is practiced today and how it may develop in the future. It incorporates case studies from around the world cutting across a range of time periods, from the Egyptian royal tomb builders of Deir el-Medina, to H.J. Heinz, Cadbury Brothers and Tata Steel.

Trademarks, Brands and Competitiveness brings together scholars from a variety of disciplines to provide a critical account of the contribution of branding to economic growth, the relationship between trademark law and brand strategy, and the building and repositioning of individual brands as case studies in the effects of competition.

Management History is ideal for instructors wishing to incorporate historical content and analysis into management education courses, modules, and training programs, particularly at the MBA level and higher.

Technological Innovation in Finance

The International Tin Cartel

Moneymen and their Dream Machines

Series: Routledge Explorations in Economic History

Edited by Bernado Batiz-Lazo, J. Carles MaixéAltés, Universidade da Coruña, Spain and Paul Thomes, RWTH Aachen University, Germany

This book brings together two areas of inquiry, the history of tin and its role in producing countries and the history of cartelization as a solution to the inherent difficulties of primary commodity markets.

Labour-Intensive Industrialization in Global History

This is the first book to investigate how computers have transformed the internal workings of financial service organizations in different competitive environments around the globe. Documenting developments in the US alongside case studies from Japan, Mexico, and Europe, Technological Innovation in Finance addresses the variety of financial institutions that populated the markets for retail finance. Contributors envision technological change in banking as a long-term process of evolution, articulating an interdisciplinary approach to the study of technological change in banking that considers the effects in diverse organizational forms and in multiple banking systems.

Technological innovation had a major role in the shaping and developing of administrative procedures, routines, and organizational capabilities in organizations offering retain financial services. This volume shows how and when technological change altered the competitive intensity in the markets for retail finance. Technological Innovation in Finance explores the scope and consequences of these phenomena in an international context by discussing the diffusion of mechanical and digital technology across commercial/clearing banks, savings banks, cooperative banks, and postal banks.

Some contributions focus on individual organizations, others on changes in the competitive process, and others on the collaboration between several organizations.

Edited by Gareth Austin, London School of Economics, UK and Kaoru Sugihara, Kyoto University, Japan Series: Routledge Explorations in Economic History This volume calls for a major rethinking of our understanding of industrialization for global history, by bringing the East Asian experience of ‘labour-intensive’ industrialization into focus and, thereby, reinterpreting both the western experience of ‘capital-intensive’ industrialization and the equally distinctive experiences of countries in other regions of Asia and in Africa and Latin America. We argue that the absorption of labour into ‘labour-intensive’ industries, both traditional and modern, and the improvement of the quality of labour formed a central mechanism of global diffusion of industrialization.

This volume presents a discussion on the significance of labour-intensive industrialization by leading economic historians engaged in the development of synthesizing theses and/or specializing in relevant regions, and seeking to foster the new academic dialogue on global economic history.

Industrialization in the Gulf A Socioeconomic Revolution Edited by Jean-Francois Seznec and Mimi Kirk, both at Georgetown University, USA Series: Routledge Studies in Middle Eastern Economies In recent years, we have witnessed huge economic and socio-political change in the Gulf. This book examines the rapid industrialization of the region and how local economies are starting to diversify away from petroleum, exploring how this transformative process is starting to impact on the region’s economy and social make-up.

With contributions from some of the top scholars and practitioners in the area, this book discusses crucial topics related to the region’s transformation, from issues of economic development and relations with Iran to foreign labour and women’s education and work outside the home. Chapters explore how in addition to the massive growth in investments and products such as oil, gas, chemicals, metals, and cement, this growth has triggered numerous societal changes, such as labour migration, educational reforms, declining natality, and shifting gender roles.

Covering in detail a broad range of issues, this book will appeal not only to Middle East experts, particularly those with an interest in the Persian Gulf, but also to development experts and political scientists.

Corporate Governance 2nd Edition

International Corporate Governance A Comparative Approach Thomas Clarke, University of Technology, Australia Corporate governance has changed and developed a good deal in recent years. Thomas Clarke’s International Corporate Governance offers a comprehensive guide to understanding corporate governance as a discipline, and does so with a style and panache that can be lacking in many competitor texts.

While the popular structure has been retained, significant changes have been made to take account of the implications of the global financial crisis, the relevance of the post-GFC new regulatory order and corporate governance in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, South America, and Africa. In this cutting edge new edition, Clarke extends an already excellent range of case studies to include Lehman Brothers, AIG, Royal Bank of Scotland and UBS, as well as updating classic case studies in light of recent events. New textbook features include student questions to assist with assessments, as well as a new and impressive companion website.

Already a popular textbook, this new edition of International Corporate Governance will prove essential reading for all students of corporate governance, whether advanced undergraduate, masters or executive.

European Corporate Governance

The Corporate Social Responsibility Reader

Readings and Perspectives

Edited by Jon Burchell, University of Sheffield, UK

Edited by Thomas Clarke, University of Technology, Australia and Jean-Francois Chanlat, University of Paris IX Dauphine, France

For decades, Europe has sought to become more financially integrated with the United States and thus European legal institutions, regulatory, governance and accounting practices have faced pressures to adapt to international competitive markets. Against this backdrop, European corporate governance systems have been criticized as being less efficient than the Anglo-American market based systems.

This textbook examines the unique dimensions and qualities of European corporate governance. Reforms of key institutions, the doctrine of shareholder value and the seemingly irresistible growth of CEO power and reward are critically analyzed. The book brings out the richness of European corporate governance systems, as well as highlighting historical weaknesses that will require further work for a sustainable corporate governance environment in the future.

In light of the most severe financial crisis since the 1930s, this intelligent look at European corporate governance is a vital textbook for courses on corporate governance and a great supplementary textbook on a host of business, management and accounting classes.

Selected Contents: Introduction: Regime Change?

Part 1: Convergence or Diversity?: A European Perspective on Corporate Governance Part 2: The Impact of Shareholder Value Part 3: CEO Power and Reward Part 4: Corporate Governance Industry Analysis Part 5: Corporate Governance and Transitional Economies 2009: 246 x 189: 424pp Hb: 978-0-415-40533-1: $185.00 Pb: 978-0-415-40534-8: $62.95 For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415405348

In the age of global capitalism, shareholders, and profits are not the only concerns of modern business corporations.

Debates surrounding economic and environmental sustainability, and increasing intense media scrutiny, mean that businesses have to show ethical responsibility to stakeholders beyond the boardroom. A commitment to corporate social responsibility may help the wider community. It could also protect an organization’s brand and reputation.

Including key articles and original perspectives from academics, NGOs and companies themselves, The Corporate Social Responsibility Reader is a welcome and insightful introduction to the important issues and themes of this growing field of study. This book addresses: • the changing relationships between business, state and civil society • the challenges to business practice • what businesses should be responsible for, and why • issues of engagement, transparency and honesty • the boundaries of CSR – can businesses ever be responsible?

While case studies examine major international corporations like Coca Cola and Starbucks, broader articles discuss thematic trends and issues within the field. This comprehensive but eclectic collection provides a wonderful overview of CSR and its place within the contemporary social and economic landscape. It is essential reading for anyone studying business and management, and its ethical dimensions.

Selected Contents: Section 1: Contemporary Pressures and the Changing Relationships Between Business, the State and Civil Section 2: Challenges to Contemporary Business Practice Section 3: What Should Businesses be Responsible for and Why Should they Care?

Good Business

Business Law

Exercising Effective and Ethical Leadership

David Kelly, Ann Holmes and Ruth Hayward

James O’Toole and Don Mayer

This illuminating and practical collection of essays addresses the increasingly important topics of corporate ethics, social responsibility, and sustainability in the context of effective global business strategies.

Instead of condemning business, or exhorting corporate leaders to ’do good,’ the authors deal with the ’hot button’ issues of our time in a cool and rational manner, seeing them as opportunities rather than as problems.

As the authors illustrate, there is no necessary trade-off between business leaders doing the right thing, on one hand, and the profitable thing, on the other. They demonstrate that ethics is not peripheral, or in addition to, the central concerns of business. To the contrary, ethics and good citizenship are at the heart of all good business strategies, decisions, and organizational cultures. These essays offer useful examples of how executives can create strategies and cultures that are, both and at the same time, ethical and effective-the essence of good business.

This latest edition of Business Law has been thoroughly updated and expanded to provide a clear and comprehensive treatment of the key aspects of business law.

Major developments that have occured since the last edition are covered, including:

Ethics Ethical Dilemmas in Management Christina Garsten, Stockholm University, Sweden and Tor Hernes, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark

This exciting new text engages with the issue of ethical dilemmas encountered in different organizations. Rather than exploring the definition of ethical conduct, this book focuses on the way in which the process of organization produces dilemmas of ethical behaviour. Using illustrative accounts from corporate settings as a basis, the book explores the conditions that lead to ethical dilemmas and the strategies organizations adopt to deal with these dilemmas or steer away from them. The book suggests that ethical dilemmas are often dealt with by directing attention away from the core problem, rather than engaging with and solving it.

This is a fascinating text, which raises important questions and provides a deeper understanding of the dynamics of ethical processes. A company’s ethical behaviour is a major criterion by which the company, its products and services are judged and is therefore crucial to sound management in today’s organizations. Ethical Dilemmas in Management is essential reading for all students of business and management and ethics.

Organizational Transformation for Sustainability offers some innovative answers to the big questions involved in organizational sustainability and the radical changes that organizations will need to undergo as we move into the third millennium. This new approach comes from the new field of integral metatheory.

During the 21st century organizations will undergo a level of radical and global change that has rarely been seen before. This transformation will come as a result of the environmental, social and economic challenges that now confront organisations in all their activities. But are our understandings and theories of change up to the task of meeting these challenges? Will we be able to develop sustaining visions of how organizations might contribute to the long-term viability of our interdependent global communities? Organizational Transformation for Sustainability: An Integral Metatheory offers some innovative answers to the big questions involved in organizational sustainability and the radical changes that organizations will need to undergo as we move into the third millennium. This new approach comes from the emerging field of integral metatheory.

Edwards shows how a ’Big Picture’ view of organisational transformation can contribute to our understanding of, and search for, organisational sustainability. There are four key themes to the book: i) the need for integrative metatheories for organisational change; ii) the development of a general research method for building metatheory; iii) the description of an integral metatheory for organisational sustainability; and iv) the discussion of the implications of this metatheory for organisational change and social policy regarding sustainability. This book brings a unique and important orienting perspective to these issues.

2nd Edition

Decision-Making in a Global Political Economy John Kline, Georgetown University, USA The newly-updated version of this groundbreaking textbook continues to provide a topical and relevant analysis of the ethical dimensions of conducting business in a global political economy. From a starting point of applied ethics, the book introduces a common set of normative terms and analytical tools for examining and discussing real case scenarios.

Extensive real-world examples, presented in the form of exhibits, cover issues including: • foreign production, including sweatshops • export of hazardous products • testing and pricing of HIV-AIDS drugs • advertising tobacco, alcoholic beverages and infant formula • deceptive marketing techniques and bribery • religious and social discrimination • cultural impacts from ’music, movies and malls’ • environmental issues, including oil spills, rain forest preservation, global warming and genetically modified foods • fair trade certification and consumer boycotts • oil investments in the Sudan, Burma and Nigeria.

To keep pace with the changing landscape of global business, this new edition features: • updated exhibits that introduce new issues, including internet censorship and privacy, marketing and obesity, dumping electronic waste in Ghana, the costs of bottled water, and Wal-Mart’s supplier code in China • increased coverage of issues arising in emerging markets • updated descriptions and assessments of relevant international agreements • seventeen new photographs that were chosen to accompany cases designed for classroom discussion • ’framing questions’ to guide discussion of issues in topical chapters • three additional figures that help depict the ethical analysis process.

The continued globalization of business increases the relevance of this textbook and its unique focus on specifically international ethical challenges faced by business, where governments and civil society groups play an active role. While most business ethics texts continue to focus heavily on ethical theory, this textbook condenses ethical theory into applied decision-making concepts, emphasizing practical applications to real world dilemmas.

Anyone with an interest in the ethical implications of international business, or the business implications of corporate responsibility in the global market, will find this book a thought-provoking yet balanced analysis.

Clearly written, this has become the textbook of choice in this increasingly important field.

Public & Non-Profit Management 2nd Edition

Public Management and Governance Edited by Tony Bovaird, University of Birmingham, UK and Elke Löffler, Governance International, UK

The role of government in managing society has once again become a hot topic worldwide. A more diverse society, the internet, and new expectations of citizens are challenging traditional ways of managing governments.

The second edition of Public Management and Governance examines key issues in efficient management and good quality service in the public sector. With contributions from leading authors in the field, it goes beyond the first edition, looking at the ways in which the process of governing needs to be altered fundamentally to remain legitimate and to make the most of society’s many resources.

Key themes include: • challenges and pressures facing modern governments worldwide • the changing role of the public sector in a ‘mixed economy‘ of provision • governance issues such as ethics, equalities, and citizen engagement.

This new edition has an increased international scope and includes new chapters on partnership working, agency and decentralised management, process management, and HRM. Comprehensive and detailed, it is an ideal companion for undergraduate and postgraduate students of public management, public administration, government and public policy.

The New Public Governance?

Emerging Perspectives on the Theory and Practice of Public Governance Edited by Stephen P. Osborne, University of Edinburgh, UK

‘Stephen Osborne is to be congratulated for assembling an impressive array of contributors and producing a text which makes a major contribution to the debates about this emerging paradigm.’ - Robert Pyper, Glasgow Caledonian University, UK ’This book showcases the best writing on ‘public governance’, bringing together new research in institutional analysis, policy dynamics, and government-society relationships. It provides a good balance of conceptual insights and empirical analysis grounded in the large changes evident in advanced countries in recent decades.’ - Brian Head, University of Queensland, Australia ’This text, edited by Stephen Osborne, may do as much for critical insight to Europe’s public service delivery as the David Osborne and Ted Gaebler text on Reinventing Government did for the United States in the 1990s in refocusing the public sector for improvement.’ - Dean F. Eitel, DePaul University, USA

Despite predictions that ’new public management’ would establish itself as the new paradigm of Public Administration and Management, recent academic research has highlighted concerns about the intra-organizational focus and limitations of this approach. This book represents a comprehensive analysis of the state of the art of public management, examining and framing the debate in this important area.

The New Public Governance? sets out to explore this emergent field of research and to present a framework with which to understand it. Divided into five parts, the book examines: • theoretical underpinnings of the concept of governance, especially competing perspectives from Europe and the US • governance of inter-organizational partnerships and contractual relationships • governance of policy networks • lessons learned and future directions.

Under the steely editorship of Stephen Osborne and with contributions from leading academics including Owen Hughes, John M.

Nonprofit Organizations and the State Collaboration and Governance Taco Brandsen, Nijmegen University, the Netherlands Historically, nonprofit organizations and the state have often collaborated closely in the delivery of public services. Following public management reforms, this collaboration has been extended and deepened in recent decades. However, this relationship is also fraught with misunderstandings, unrecognized risks and missed opportunities.

Nonprofit Organizations and the State offers a comprehensive, systematic and accessible introduction to this subject. The book also offers insights into the risks of collaboration, as well as capitalizing on the opportunities presented by collaboration initiatives.

Other topics covered include: • key issues involved in collaboration • key concepts and theories of collaboration from a range of academic perspectives • types of collaboration and their policy implications • effects of collaboration on organizational development.

Human Resource Management in Public Service Organizations

Marketing Management and Communications in the Public Sector

Ethics and Management in the Public Sector

Edited by Rona S. Beattie, Glasgow Caledonian University, UK and Jennifer Waterhouse, University of Technology, Australia

Martial Pasquier and Jean-Patrick Villeneuve, both at Swiss Graduate School of Public Administration, Switzerland

Human resource management (HRM) is a core element of any service, but especially so in public service organizations, whose employees are often their most valuable resource.

However, until now there has been little information readily available in the form of key texts, which explore this important topic. Now, this outstanding book tackles the subject head on, bringing together cutting-edge research on HRM in the public sector from a range of respected international authors. It covers such key issues as:

International in approach, this text provides students, practitioners and scholars with a thorough overview of the major concepts and tools in marketing and communication as they can, and should be applied in the public sector, giving readers an exclusive and decisive analysis of public sector marketing.

• managing cultural change and the work-life balance.

It provides an overview of the possibilities and limits of the application of these concepts and their corresponding tools in the public sector. For if the specificities of the public sector are numerous, it is probably with the concepts of marketing and communication that boundaries are easiest to miss, often leading to their inappropriate use. These specificities are the pillars of this book.

Timely and topical, this book will be of great interest both to researchers in the fields of HRM and public sector management, and to management practitioners keen to inform their practice from an evidence base. This book was first published as a special issue of Public Management Review.

If the realities of the public sector are key to any understanding of marketing and communication, the international scene is the only possible ground to truly explore their various possibilities. This book is key reading for all students of marketing with an interest in the public sector.

Selected Contents: 1. Introduction: HRM and the Public Sector Context 2. Human Resource Management’s Stakeholders 3. Recruitment and Retention 4. Managing Diversity 5. Performance Management and Reward 6. Developing Human Resources 7. Managing Change 8. Employment Relations: A Comparative Perspective.

Alan Lawton, University of Hull, UK and Karin Lasthuizen, VU University Amsterdam, the Netherlands Grappling with ethical issues is a daily challenge for those working in organizations that deliver public services. Such services are delivered through an often bewildering range of agencies and amidst this constant change, there are fears that a public service ethos, a tradition of working in the public interest, becomes blurred.

Using extensive vignettes and case studies, Ethics and Management in the Public Sector illuminates the practical decisions made by public officials. The book takes a universal approach to ethics reflecting the world-wide impact of public service reforms. This textbook covers important themes reflecting current thinking, including an examination of: • the definition and scope of ethical issues for public service organizations • the universality of ethical prinicples and the relativity of values • the extent to which Western ethical principles are appropriate in other parts of the world • the impact of reforms on traditional values and principles of public service.

This easy-to-use textbook is a definitive guide for postgraduate students of public sector ethics, as well as students of public management and administration more generally.

Social Accounting and Public Management

Public Management and Complexity Theory

Accountability for the Public Good Edited by Stephen P. Osborne, University of Edinburgh, UK and Amanda Ball, University of Canterbury, New Zealand Social accounting as a discipline has challenged the methodology and focus of the larger field of accounting over the last 50 years. More recently it has taken on greater significance for other subjects as well, addressing issues for public policy and management more broadly. These include the issues of the nature of accountability in the contemporary plural state, environmental and societal sustainability, the ethical management and governance of public services and resources, and the creation and sustenance of social capital as an essential element of the modern plural state.

Social Accounting and Public Management brings together for the first time researchers from a range of disciplines including accounting, political science, management, sociology and policy studies to discuss and develop our knowledge and theory of the nature of ‘accountability’ in contemporary global society and the challenges it may pose for public policy and management. This book addresses this nexus of all of these issues and disciplines, and through this, makes a contribution to the development of the disciplines of both social accounting and public policy and management.

Richer Decision-Making in Public Services Mary Lee Rhodes, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, Joanne Murphy, Queen’s University Belfast, UK, Jenny Muir, Queen’s University Belfast, UK and John A. Murray, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland That public services exhibit unpredictability, novelty and, on occasion, chaos, is an observation with which even a casual observer would agree. Existing theoretical frameworks in public management fail to address these features, relying more heavily on attempts to eliminate unpredictability through increased reliance on measurable performance objectives, improved financial and human resource management techniques, decentralisation of authority and accountability and resolving principal-agent behaviour pathologies. Essentially, these are all attempts to improve the ‘steering’ capacity of public sector managers and policy makers.

By adopting a Complex Adaptive Systems (CAS) approach to public services, this book shifts the focus from developing steering techniques to identifying patterns of behaviour of the participants with the ultimate objective of increasing policy-makers’ and practitioners’ understanding of the factors that may enable more effective public service decision-making and provision. The authors apply a CAS framework to a series of case studies in public sector management to generate new insights into the issues, processes and participants in public service domains.

Voluntary Organizations and Public Service Delivery

Managing Organizational Change in Public Services International Issues, Challenges and Cases

Edited by Ian Cunningham, University of Strathclyde, UK and Philip James, Oxford Brookes University, UK

Edited by Rune Todnem By and Calum Macleod, both at Queen Margaret University, UK

The outsourcing of public services to voluntary, not-for-profit organizations has proven an important part of public sector reform during the last three decades across most industrialised countries. These moves to accord the voluntary sector a greater role in public service delivery inevitably means that the nature of its relationship with government, and place in the State more generally, is undergoing a process of change.

To date, much of the debate about the desirability, or otherwise, of these changes has focused attention on how far it will improve efficiency and quality of services and the degree to which it will undermine the independence of the organisations themselves. Very little attention has however been paid to the implications for the employment policies and practices of voluntary organizations and the work experiences of those working for them.

Voluntary Organizations and Public Sector Delivery provides a systematic examination of how these, and other, aspects of voluntary sector employment are being affected by its engagement with the growing trend to the market-based outsourcing of the delivery of public services. The volume draws together a team of expert contributors to explore how the process of outsourcing is impacting the internal and external labor markets of voluntary organizations, and the implications for the policy objectives underlying the externalization of the delivery of public services to them.

Understanding E-Government Information Systems in Public Administration Vincent Homburg, Erasmus University, the Netherlands

Governments these days often boast about the efficiency of their electronic systems.

Information communication technologies (ICTs) apparently allow public service to become cheaper, faster and more democratic. E-government has become another buzzword, the shining future of the public realm. Critics claim, however, that ICTs’ potential for democratic renewal is hampered by ancient assumptions of how governments should function. But which viewpoint is nearer the truth?

In this original and insightful volume, Vincent Homburg demonstrates how the use, form and impact of ICTs are, in fact, entwined within the socio-political, economic and institutional aspects already established by government and public administration. Evangelical or fatalistic perspectives are discredited to show the different realities in which ICTs play a role in our daily lives. Using case studies and vignettes from throughout Europe and the US, the book analyzes what these new technologies actually do, and how they are screened through varying layers of bureaucracy and convention.

This is a timely addition to our understanding of what is meant by e-government, getting behind the political rhetoric. Understanding E-Government will be key reading for all students of public administration, political science, organization theory and information systems.

Textbook • 2nd Edition

Nonprofit Organizations An Introduction Helmut K. Anheier, University of California, Los Angeles, USA

Fundraising Management Analysis, Planning and Practice

Arts Management

Adrian Sargeant, Indiana University, USA and Elaine Jay, Sargeant Associates Ltd, UK

Derrick Chong, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

The second edition of Arts Management has been thoroughly revised to provide an updated, comprehensive overview of this fast-changing subject.

Arts managers and students alike are offered a lively, sophisticated insight into the artistic, managerial and social responsibilities necessary for those working in the field.

This comprehensive introduction to fundraising management provides a thorough grounding in the principles underpinning professional practice. Much more than a ‘how-to’ guide, the book critically examines the key issues in fundraising policy, planning and implementation, and introduces the most important management tools available to the modern fundraiser.

Praise for the previous edition: ’Helmut Anheier is to be applauded for producing a pioneering text that is packed with scholarly reflections covering a broad intellectual canvas.’ The Times Higher Education Supplement ‘For the first time in one volume, Helmut K. Anheier, one of the founders of nonprofit studies, brings together the main theories, concepts and research findings from this important interdisciplinary research field. This clearly-written book will be a valuable guide for students, researchers and policy makers alike.’ - David Lewis, London School of Economics, UK ’For students navigating the largely uncharted territory of nonprofit theory, Anheier’s comprehensive book will be a welcome resource.

And for nonprofit leaders who want to understand their sector better, it presents a big-picture view of nonprofit theory, policy and management. Both will benefit from this important and impressive work.’ - William P. Ryan, Harvard University, USA In this new edition of his popular textbook, Nonprofit Organizations, Helmut K. Anheier has fully updated his comprehensive introduction to this field. The text takes an international perspective, detailing the background and concepts behind these organizations and examining relevant theories and central issues.

Anheier covers the full range of nonprofit organizations – service providers, membership organizations, foundations, community groups – in different fields, such as arts and culture, social services, education. He introduces central terms such as philanthropy, charity, community, social entrepreneurship, social investment and public good. Acknowledging and explaining how the field spills over from public management, thorough nonprofit management and public administration, the textbook is systematic in its treatment of theories, management approaches and policy analyses.

The previous edition was winner of the Best Book Award at the American Academy of Management in 2006 and this new edition, expanded and reorganized into parts and chapters, will fit both the North American and European schedules of academic teaching.

2nd Edition

Fully revised and updated, this new edition of Fundraising Management is packed with examples and case studies from around the world. It covers every important aspect of the fundraising process, including: • planning

With new cases studies and several new chapters, Derrick Chong takes an interdisciplinary approach in examining some of the main impulses informing discussions on the management of arts and cultural organizations. These are highly charged debates, since arts managers are expected to reconcile managerial, economic and aesthetic objectives. Topics include: • arts and the State, with reference to the instrumentalism of the arts and culture • business and the arts

• donor recruitment and development

• ownership and control of arts organizations

• community fundraising • corporate fundraising

• arts consumption and consumers, including audience development and arts marketing

• legacy fundraising

• managing for excellence and artistic integrity

The Art Business Edited by Iain Robertson, Sotheby’s Institute, London, UK and Derrick Chong, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

By the time you read this book, the art world may have witnessed the sale of its first $500 million painting. Whilst for some people money is anathema to art this is clearly a wealthy international industry, and a market with its own conventions and pressures.

Drawing on the vast experience of Sotheby’s Institute of Art, The Art Business exposes the realities of the commercial trade in fine art and antiques. Attention is devoted to the role of auction houses, commercial galleries and art museums as key institutions, with the text divided into four thematic sections covering: • technical and structural elements of the art market • cultural policy and management in art business • regulatory legal and ethical issues in the art world • the views, through interviews, of leading art market experts.

This book provides a thorough examination of contemporary issues in the art business, and the mechanisms and influences which underpin its evolution. It is essential reading for students of art history or international business, or anyone with an interest in pursuing a career in this area.

Arts Leadership James Abruzzo, Rutgers University, USA A memorable performance of the New York City Ballet or a captivating exhibition at the British Museum could only be presented by arts institutions that are well-managed under strong leaders. Arts Leadership is the first book that describes the singular importance and crucial effect that the leader has on these and other world-class institutions.

This book takes the reader behind the scenes of the world’s greatest arts institutions and, through case studies and interviews, explores the uniqueness of arts leadership. Arts Leadership also presents the causes and implications of the growing gap between the need for arts leaders and the number of individuals capable of taking on those roles; a gap that will widen worldwide over the next ten years, creating a crisis in the industry.

Describing the leadership challenges currently faced in America and Europe and the impending demand in the Middle East and Asia for leaders of museums, orchestras, performing arts centers and other related arts organizations, this text is a must-read for anyone interested in arts management, museum studies, cultural policy or nonprofit administration.

Managing Complexity with Creativity John Lawler, Bradford University, UK and Andy Bilson, University of Central Lancashire, UK

Management and leadership are increasingly important within the organisation and delivery of social care services and now form part of the post qualification framework for social workers. Yet, whilst there is a relatively broad understanding of management concepts and their application in social care, their foundations often go unchallenged both by students and managers. Furthermore, leadership is open to a wide range of interpretations and is often ill-defined with the expectation that we share a common understanding of the term.

This text promotes an appreciation of the development of management and leadership thinking and the different themes which inform current ideas. It considers these topics from a range of theoretical standpoints in order to stimulate readers to consider their own experience and expectations of management and leadership. It then demonstrates how these standpoints might promote innovative approaches to management and leadership within social care organisations and ways in which such organisations might then develop. The aim of this challenging text is to encourage critical and informed reflection on current practice.

Social Work Management and Leadership is essential reading for students of management and leadership in social care as well as being an invaluable resource for managers who simply wish to consider new approaches to their practice.

Contemporary sport could not function without the involvement of voluntary organisations, from local grass-roots clubs to international agencies such as the International Olympic Committee. Management of this sector continues to undergo profound change, largely in response to the challenges of professionalisation and increasing expectations in terms of transparency, accountability and ethical behaviour. This book fills a significant gap in the literature on sport management by setting out the principles and practices necessary for effective management of voluntary sport organisations around the world.

In addition to applying and adapting established management strategies and techniques to voluntary sport organisations, this book is the first to fully relate mainstream organizational theory to this important sector of sport management. With contributions from an international team of researchers and management practitioners, the book explores key functional areas such as: • strategy and planning • human resources

• national and local case studies that appraise existing strategic management practice in sports development • separate full introductions to sports development and business strategy

• the application of strategic management principles to the development of sport and development through sport

• finance • managing change

• everything the reader needs to engage meaningfully with the relevant National Occupational Standards for the sport(s) development profession.

• marketing • event management • risk management.

Each chapter discusses best practice and includes case study material, self test questions and guides to further reading. As the only book to outline a professional, theoretically informed and practically focused curriculum for voluntary sport management, this book is essential reading for all students of sport management and all managers working in or alongside the voluntary sector.

For more information, visit: www.routledge.com/9780415489454

The book comprehensively explains the strategic concepts and techniques that sports students and practitioners across the UK and internationally need to understand. It includes:

• a range of tasks and resources that encourage the reader to develop knowledge, skills and competencies through the application of theory to practical examples

• governance

The field of sports development is becoming ever more professional, with the levels of expertise in planning and efficiency required of those working in private or national sports institutions higher than they have ever been. In response to this, strategic sports development has emerged as a means of applying business strategies to the context of sports development. Strategic Sports Development is the first book to directly address this important new field.

Strategic Sports Development is designed to help students develop the practical skills needed to contribute to development strategy in a vocational context, and give practitioners the confidence and know-how to improve the strategic development of their sports organisation. This book is essential reading for all students and practitioners of strategic sports development, and a valuable resource for students of sports management or development in general.

The first book to help international students write material for business qualifications!

Academic Writing for International Students of Business is the first book specially designed to assist overseas students studying Business or Economics courses in English. Most courses expect students to complete a variety of writing tasks as part of their assessment, such as essays, reports and projects. For many students these can be a major concern, but this book explains the writing process from start to finish and practises all the key writing skills.

Academic Writing for International Students of Business is clearly organised and can be used either with a teacher or for self-study. It is divided into four main parts: • The Writing Process, from assessing sources to proof-reading the completed work • Elements of Writing, practising such skills as giving definitions and examples • Accuracy in Writing, with 15 units on areas from abbreviations to verb tenses • Writing models, which illustrate emails, CVs, reports and longer essays This pattern makes it easy for teachers or students to find the help they need with writing tasks. All the units include extensive practice exercises, and a full answer key is included. All the material has been thoroughly tested and revised.

This is an up-to-date course which reflects the interests and issues of contemporary Business studies. Critical reading, avoiding plagiarism and working in groups are dealt with in detail. This practical and easy-to-use guide will help students planning to progress onto a career with international companies or organisations, where proficiency in written English is an important asset.
