Review: "This guide is in two parts. Part one provides a clear overview of more than one hundred ideas that have most influenced the management of business over the past century or so. As well as explaining each idea, it gives a brief rundown of the history behind it, and lists suggestions for further reading." "Part two gives the low-down on more than 50 of the world's most influential management thinkers past and present. The majority are American - including what can be called the "Famous Five": Peter Drucker, Douglas McGregor, Michael Porter, Alfred Sloan and Frederick Winslow Taylor - but more than 20 come from countries such as Britain, Japan, India, France and the Netherlands." "For managers everywhere who want an entertaining introduction to the thinking that has driven business success over the years and will continue to be influential, this Guide to Management Ideas and Gurus will be an invaluable source of reference."--BOOK JACKET.
