Klappentext

Das Buch fasst in übersichtlicher und strukturierter Weise die wichtigsten Methoden für einen Manager oder Consultant zusammen, die z.B. zum Umorganisieren einer Firma notwendig sind. Es ist ein nutzbringendes Handbuch sowohl für Dozenten und Studierende der Wirtschaftswissenschaften als auch für Praktiker. Michael Grabinski legt den Schwerpunkt nicht auf häufig beschriebene "wissenschaftliche" Methoden. Er beschreibt und analysiert ausführlich individuelle Methoden, die in der Realität erfolgreich umgesetzt worden sind, und vermittelt so wertvolles, anwendungsorientiertes Wissen für die Managementpraxis.
