520 $aManaging in Britain and Germany compares British and German managers' behaviour and views of their work, and seeks to explain the differences. Based on a two-year comparative study by British and German research teams, the book challenges the universal view of management presented in so many management books by showing how differently German middle managers think and act.
520 8 $aThese differences are then unravelled and traced back to their various roots: ranging from the particular (nature of the job, product or organization) to the general (the society's institutions and values). Written by leading management experts from Britain and Germany, the book provides useful lessons and insights for practising managers and for those studying management everywhere.
