Kris Cole throws light on the gap between theory and practice in the 5th edition of Management - Theory and Practice. She explains management theory in everyday language, and puts it in a context that makes it easy to understand.

This resource will help you develop the vocabulary you need to communicate effectively with colleagues and equips you with models and frameworks to tackle management challenges.
