Fashions in business thinking change abruptly, and a wide range of management theories has been developed in an attempt to codify the shifting components of business theory. Hundreds of models have emerged to track, measure and forecast business solutions, but many of them have been buried in academic journals or are explained in such theoretical terms that they are all but useless for busy practitioners.100+ Management Models: How to understand and apply the world's most powerful business tools gives an overview of each of the most important of these models in eight categories: sustainability, innovation, strategy, diversity, customers, human resources, benchmarking and leadership. The ninth section of the book covers the most powerful models for implementation in business.Each of the 100 models is analysed consistently with:* A tailor-made illustration of the essence of the model, as an adaptation or interpretation of the original academic source;* A problem statement, explaining what the model is designed to do;* Explanation of the essence of the model, describing what the model is about;* General and specific guidelines on how to use the model;* Identification of typical results when the model is applied;* Comments on the limitations of the model;* A list of the three most useful academic references for the model.Each section closes with reflections on the key dilemmas that tend to emerge in each category.100+ Management Models: How to understand and apply the world's most powerful business tools is an essential resource for managers at all levels of their careers.
