Publishers Description: ***Now available in Australia with the most up-to-date information about the new 'Work Choices' legislation. For orders use isbn 0470813210. This book is the third edition of the highly regarded introductory management text by Paul Davidson and Ricky Griffin. It has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect the current trends and practices of Australasian businesses. Each chapter's content is presented within a global context of management, where the new work environment knows no geographic boundaries. A solid foundation of research provides the background against which Australian, New Zealand, and Asia-Pacific illustrative examples are used. These examples are drawn from small to medium size enterprises as well as larger multinational corporations. A critical thinking perspective is integrated throughout the book, asking and encouraging students to analyse the theory in light of real world examples. The text emphasises the importance of ethics in internal and external business environments, acknowledges diversity in the workforce, and the need to manage information technology, knowledge, and quality to achieve organisational goals.
