It also includes thinkers and consultants such as Ohmae Kenichi, Fukuzawa Yukichi, Tom Peters and Charles Handy who have helped to redefine the way we think about management. New and emerging aspects of management are covered through the inclusion of such cutting edge thinkers as Arie de Geus, Max Boisot and Nonaka Ikujiro.
Taken together, the fifty biographies presented here described how management emerged as a modern discipline and grew into its present form. Organisation, strategy, marketing, production management, human resource management and knowledge management all come together to show how management is a multi-faceted discipline.
