Understanding Organizations

In a new introduction to his classic text, Charles Handy demonstrates how the key concepts of culture, motivation, leadership, power, role-playing and group-working remain as important today as when the book was first published. 'Organizations . . . are not 'objects'. They are micro-societies'. This core business text gives students and professionals the tools to analyse and improve these 'micro-societies'. This new edition of Handy's landmark text will be published at the same time as the first Penguin edition of his lighter look at people and business, INSIDE ORGANIZATIONS.
