Organizations today are struggling to make their management systems more effective. Most are losing the battle. Part of the problem is that they do not understand the forces that have shaped these systems historically, that are currently shaping them, & that will shape them in the future. This book continues the work begun in Roth's earlier efforts, WORK & REWARDS: REDEFINING OUR WORKLIFE REALITY (Praeger) & A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO QUALITY IMPROVEMENT (Praeger). It explores origins of modern day management trends including the quality improvement movement, environmentalism, downsizing, the team approach, computerization, temps, proactive planning, job enrichment, how these trends evolved, how they affect today's workplace, where they are & should be leading us. "An excellent & meticulously researched book, discovering the sometimes surprisingly old roots of modern day management practice & thought, defining the foundations needed for on-going & future improvements."--Henry Argento, Director, Sander Associates. "A unique book about the history of management - past, present, future. Though the ground covered is immense, the book is admirably brief & the writing style so direct that readers at all levels should have no difficulty understanding the concepts presented."--Eric Trist, Professor Emeritus, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Roth & Assocs., 215/395-3449 (FAX 215/395-3604), $11.95. ISBN 0-9635680-1-9.
