The contributors use a variety of management perspectives - strategy, organization theory, decision making, industrial relations, and marketing - and deliberately place the experience of more traditional industrial settings alongside those at the forefront of the 'new economy'. Making Time seeks to spark a debate across the field of management that does justice to the richness of the temporal features of contemporary organizations. The book will be vital reading for those who want to understand the complexities of time in organizations and the modern world, and the challenges it presents for the theoretical and practical spheres of management.
The essence of time is a common feature in the world of business, yet at the same time is all too often taken for granted. This volume provides a complete overview of some of the key concepts of time and also describes the complexities involved when considering the type of organization as well as its level of globalization. This book will be essential reading for those who want to understand the dynamics of time in organizations and the entire business economy.
