This unique, re-engineered book defines and describes the new "paradigm" brought on by recent dramatic changes in the field of management. Managing Today! redefines the traditional "functional" approach employed by previous management books to more accurately reflect recent, fundamental changes in the economy and workplace—changes that have significantly reshaped today's managers' jobs. Robbins' balanced approach presents an effective integration of theory and application displayed within a clear, visual design specifically tailored for today's readers. Coverage includes changing issues in today's workplace (risk, privatization, multiple skills, and continual retraining); culture shock; time-management skills; cycle-time reduction and technology transfer; virtual teams; human behavior; leadership; trust building; change management; and more. For human resources professionals, business managers/team leaders, and anyone interested in Organizational Behavior and Business Management.

The basics of management remain the same. Managing is very different in different jobs, organizations and countries. Management is changing radically. All three statements are true. Most books on management focus on the first or the third statement. This book is unusual in that it takes account of all three. It does so because effective managers increasingly have to understand not only the basics of management, but also how it is changing and how that affects their work and careers. Managers are much more mobile than they used to be, so they also have a greater need than in the past to understand where, how and why management differs.

The authors introduce “The 4Cs Strategy” to describe how customers, control, choice, and change are all part of a strategy for successful media organizations.

Successful principals today need skills in both management and leadership because both are essential to achieve success in all facets of running a school—one is not necessarily more important than the other. However, there are not many books solely devoted to school management. Most work on school management is part of larger works on school administration. Managing Today’s Schools: New Skills for School Leaders in the 21st Century is unique in that the focus on managerially operating a school does not hinder discussion on the interconnectedness between management and leadership. Additionally, emphasis is placed on 21st- century cutting-edge ideas about school management. Each chapter includes case study-type scenarios with thought-provoking questions that simultaneously summarize the chapter while also helping readers think about the ways they might put the ideas of the chapter into practice.
