Summary

MANAGEMENT

Typical questions

    • Points to consider

  • • Management can be both a theoretical and a practical subject. Many internet sites are provided by commercial companies that expect payment. This section guides students to academic resources. It highlights commonly requested items such as management case studies.

  • • The resources should be used in conjunction with the Business Studies section. Refer in particular to the Libraries and Journal Article Indexes subsections, as these cover both business and management topics. Those studying Human Resource Management may also find the Psychology section (which encompasses Organizational Psychology) helpful.
