Fredmund Malik 
Managing People – Managing a Business [EPUB ebook] 

Management is no matter of ideology, nor is it a question of fashion. Management is a craft – the universal and most important discipline of the 21st century. Fredmund Malik, the leading expert in the field of general management, provides you with the knowledge it takes to be a successful executive and manager, in any position, within any organisation.
Fredmund Malik cuts straight to the core tasks of management, exposing its errors, misunderstandings and uncertainties with surgical precision. He shows what constitutes management – and, above all, what does not. His standard model for right and good management demonstrates how good management works, relating to the leadership of people as well as businesses.
Fredmund Malik’s theory is system-oriented and can thus be applied regardless of time or place. It is designed to work in all areas and industries of any society, irrespective of changing trends or national and cultural differences. Taking as his point of departure the consistent traits displayed by complex systems – phenomena that executives and managers are likely to address on a daily basis – Malik sets the standard for sound management in a knowledge-based economy.

Sobre el autor

Prof. Dr. Fredmund Malik is an orderly professor for corporate management with a teaching license from the University of St. Gallen, an internationally renowned management expert, the founder and chairman of Malik Management, and the creator of the Malik Management Systems® framework. He is also a bestselling and award-winning author of over ten books, including classics like ‘Managing Performing Living’ and ‘Strategy of the Management of Complex Systems’ (in German language), as well as a columnist for opinion-forming media and one of the most distinguished thought leaders in the area of management. As a board member and chairman of several governance bodies at renowned world market leaders, Malik also has broad first-hand knowledge of international corporate governance practice. In the 1990s, Malik was the first macroeconomic thinker – and for a long time the only one – to point out the damaging effects of neoliberalism to society as a whole. He was also the first to criticize the Anglo-Saxon business administration theory with its one-dimensional fixation on shareholder value, which Malik identified as one of the main causes of the global financial crisis. Thanks to his cybernetic methodology and toolset, Malik was one of the first to realize the imminent danger. As his tools enabled him to read the warning signs early on, Malik and his team developed innovative solutions to manage the complexity of today’s major challenges. With his cybernetic-based management theory, Malik has been setting standards for Right and Good Management.
His numerous distinctions and awards include the Cross of Honor for Science of Art from the Republic of Austria, 2009, and the Heinz von Foerster Award for Organizational Cybernetics from the German Cybernetic Society, 2010.
