Media and Entertainment Industry Management (eBook, PDF)

How to Integrate Business and Management with Creativity and Imagination

Beschreibung

The media and entertainment industry (MEI) differs significantly from traditional industries in many respects. Accordingly, the management of strategy, marketing and other business practices in the MEI necessitates a unique approach. Sunghan Ryu offers students focused and relevant insights into critical topics, illustrated by vivid examples from the MEI.

Unlike typical introductory textbooks on business and management, this book does not overemphasize complicated layers of theory. Instead, it presents essential concepts and frameworks in a digestible manner and supplements them with opportunities to apply this knowledge to real-world cases. The textbook demonstrates how knowledge can be constructively implemented in business and management scenarios. It is structured into 12 chapters, divided into five core modules: (1) Overview of the MEI, (2) The Fundamentals of Management, (3) Marketing Management, (4) Digital Business and Management, and (5) New Business Models and Entrepreneurship. Students will gain the ability to explain key concepts and frameworks across core business and management domains and develop analytical skills through diverse real-world cases in the MEI. Based on this knowledge, they will be equipped to identify management-related issues in the MEI and arrive at practical and effective solutions.

This book is an essential guide for students who wish to understand business and management in the dynamic world of the MEI.

Rezensionen

"Professor Ryu's book is a wide-open entry lane for those looking for a high-impact first experience to motivate life-long learning about the management foundations and creative thinking approaches for innovation in an ever-changing sector. There are two features that are especially attractive: the author's start-to-finish use of accessible industry cases, with gripping company backstories and unique media accomplishments; and his pedagogical emphasis on 'transforming the role of a lecturer into that of a trainer, facilitator, and mentor...' and the role of student into someone who is making a journey through new landscapes in the sector. While this book will be paper-based and digital, its contents ooze with Ryu's deep knowledge of

media and entertainment, and-for those who join him-his passion for creating a great learning process."

"Professor Ryu's Media and Entertainment Industry Management provides great clarity to our knowledge of the economic and culturally powerful, if chaotic and disruptive, media and entertainment industries.

While designed for courses and practitioners, media industry scholars might also benefit from Ryu's frameworks for analysis introduced in this textbook."
