Reviews
"I like the way it is laid out, it is easy to read and easy to find the main ideas of the chapters"., It is very engaging and easy to read. We love the text! The examples are very good and we like the approach of focusing on the student as a manager., I like the ethical dilemmas and the case studies. We do those every class period and they generate good discussion. I like the experiential exercises.
