Business Management
A contemporary approach
J NEL & A DE BEER (EDITORS)
No business exists in a vacuum, it is impacted on by a constantly evolving world which presents new challenges and opportunities every day. To cope with these dynamic challenges and opportunities, a business should be proactive and adaptive – not just at an operational level, but at a functional and strategic level as well. Business Management: A Contemporary Approach focuses specifically on the functions of the organisation and how to respond to changes in the micro-, market-, and macro-environment.
The book orients the reader with an introduction into the field of business management, followed by general management principles.
