Routledge Library Editions: Management

Originally published in 1960. This title presents a discussion of bureaucracy and enterprise and how they are related and might be combined. Case studies of various businesses, including Marks and Spencer, are used to illustrate this idea. Most of the companies examined are large and have all been at least partially successful in solving some of the difficulties of administration that businessmen and government officials constantly encounter. The present book was an attempt to break new ground, to suggest some new syntheses, to seek some practical explanations, and to propose some practical solutions. This title will be of interest to students of Business Studies and Management.
