This reader-oriented text helps you equip your students with the skills and solid understanding to meet the management challenges of a new century.

Fresh new cases, proven end-of-chapter exercises, end-of-chapter video cases, activities and optional cases and exercises help you equip your students with the assets, tools and resources to compete effectively amid a world of change.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
