商品簡介
Rooted in scientific management, management control has become a mainstay of both the commercial and public sectors. However, both theory and practice are by no means static, and neither is the concept of what a manager is and does. In these 19 articles, contributors offer their perspectives on the theories of management control, including approaches to control and its structures, procedures and contexts. They also expand upon issues and performance such as accounting systems, performance management practice, strategy, intellectual capital, networks, supply chains, public services, risk, ethics and sustainability. The articles are aimed at MBA, graduate and advanced undergraduate students but practicing managers are likely to find them useful in keeping up to date.
