Summary

The book aims to encourage readers to undertake their own personal explorations of the impact which origins and precedents have upon the everyday activities of managers. Through the process of reflective practice, the book seeks to encourage wider thinking and debate about the "why" questions which lie behind so many of the "how to do" approaches to management.
