Neo-Industrial Organising: Renewal by Action and Knowledge Formation in a Project-intensive Economy (Routledge Advances in Management and Business Studies)


Product Description
Neo-Industrial Organising explores an emerging area of importance in management and organisation studies, namely the trend towards a projectization of the economy as a whole and the inter- and intra-organisational relations of renewal projects. By reporting on the experiences of twenty-five renewal projects from a wide variety of both local and international organisations, the authors develop a theoretical framework based on action and knowledge, in order to answer such key questions as: What is neo-industrial management? What does the future hold for organisations? How will institutions be formed? What effects will neo-industrial organising have on the individual and his/her work situation? Topics covered include:* industrial renewal, organisation and management
* project management and temporary organisation
* personnel recruitment, selection and training
* societal infrastructure
Distinctive, relevant and accessibly written, this book will interest researchers and students in the field of organisational behaviour.
Neo-Industrial Organising: Renewal by Action and Knowledge Formation in a Project-intensive Economy (Routledge Advances in Management and Business Studies) Review
For all the talk about virtualization, e-business, and post-capitalism, little has been written about how these ideas affect they way in which the new and old merge. This book is an ecellent discussion of the "renewal paradox." ...how stable companies try to integrate unstable project teams in thier fold and try to make both work. The choice, the authors argue, is not one or the other ---but both together. This work is very well articulated and provides excellent fodder for thought to researchers and managers alike. Although this book is authored by four collaborators, not once did I feel that in reading it. Although many references are in Swedish, there are still many gems of literature that the authors provide pointers to. Very highly recommneded.Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "Neo-Industrial Organising: Renewal by Action and Knowledge Formation in a Project-intensive Economy (Routledge Advances in Management and Business Studies)" are high quality item.
