Our goal is to keep you focused on delivering important “bottom line” results—to make sure you think continually about delivering the goods that make both you and your organization successful. Good management practices and processes are the keys to delivering the results that you want and your employer wants. This results-oriented focus of Management, 13th edition, is a unique highlight you will take away from this book.
Leading & Collaborating Yes, business is competitive. But it’s not that simple. In fact, to think strictly in terms of competition is overly cynical, and such cynicism can sabotage your performance. Along with a realistic perspective on competitive realities, important action elements in managerial success are collaboration and leadership. To succeed, teams and organizations need people to work with rather than against one another, Put another way, you can’t perform alone—the world is too complex, and business is too challenging.
You need to work with your teammates. Leaders and fol- lowers need to work as collaborators more than as adver- saries. Work groups throughout your organization need to cooperate with one another. Business and government, often viewed as antagonists, can work productively together. And today more than ever, companies that traditionally were competitors engage in joint ventures and find other ways to collaborate on some things even as they compete in others. Leadership is needed to make these collaborations work.
How does an organization create competitive advan- tage through collaboration? It’s all about the people, and it derives from good leadership.
Three stereotypes of leadership are that it comes from the top of the company, that it comes from one’s immedi- ate boss, and that it means being decisive and issuing com- mands. These stereotypes contain some truth, but realities are much more complex and challenging.
First, the person at the top may or may not provide effec- tive leadership—in fact, truly good leadership is far too rare. Second, organizations need leaders at all levels, in every team and work unit. This includes you, beginning early in your career, and this is why leadership is a vital theme in this book. Third, leaders should be capable of decisiveness and of giving commands, but relying too much on this tra- ditional approach isn’t enough. Great leadership is far more inspirational than that, and helps people both to think
Welcome to our 13th edition! Thank you to everyone who has used and learned from previous editions. We are proud to present to you our best-ever edition.
Our Goals Our mission with this text is to inform, instruct, and inspire. We hope to inform by providing descriptions of the impor- tant concepts and practices of modern management. We hope to instruct by describing how you can identify options, make decisions, and take effective action. We hope to inspire not only by writing in an interesting way but also by provid- ing a real sense of the challenges and fascinating opportuni- ties ahead of you. Whether your goal is starting your own company, leading a team to greatness, building a strong orga- nization, delighting your customers, or generally forging a positive and sustainable future, we want to inspire you to take meaningful action.
We hope to inspire you to be both a thinker and a doer. We want you to know the important issues, consider the con- sequences of your actions, and think before you act. But good thinking is not enough; management is a world of action. It is a world for those who commit to high performance.
Competitive Advantage The world of management is competitive, while also rich with important collaborative opportunities. Never before has it been so imperative to your career that you learn the skills of management. Never before have people had so many opportu- nities and challenges with so many potential risks and rewards.
You will compete with other people for jobs, resources, and promotions. Your employer will compete with others for contracts, clients, and customers. To survive the compe- tition, and to thrive, you must perform in ways that give you an edge that makes others want to hire you, buy from you, and do repeat business with you. Now and over time, you will want them to choose you, not the competition.
By this standard, managers and organizations must perform. Six essential performance dimensions are cost, quality, speed, innovation, service, and sustainability. When managed well, these performance dimensions deliver value to your customer and competitive advantage to you and your organization. Lacking performance on one or more of them puts you at a disadvantage. We elaborate on them all, throughout the book.

differently and to work differently—including working col- laboratively toward outstanding results.
True leadership—from your boss as well as from you— inspires collaboration, which in turn generates results that are good for you, your employer, your customer, and all the people involved.
