Japanese and Polish Managers

Economy, Management and Education. Edited by Sławomir Banaszak and Kazunobu Oyama.

A comparative study of managers: Japan and Poland in the face of contemporary economic and social challenges. Nine contributions by Agnieszka Cybal-Michalska, Justyna Śmietańska, Naoto Nadayama, Małgorzata Suchacka, Marek S. Szczepański, Izabela Handzlik, Włodzimierz Chojnacki, Jolanta Gładys-Jakobik, Sławomir Banaszak and Kazunobu Oyama. - This publication is devoted to management in modern economies and the place and role of managers in contemporary societies. The contributors show the complex problems of managing organisations from the perspective of two countries: Japan and Poland. The comparison brings fascinating conclusions about the essence of management and economic, social and cultural capitals present in these seemingly distant two worlds. However, a more detailed analysis also shows similarities in the functioning of managers, modern leadership, the social role of a manager and the capitalist economy and post-capitalist society of Japan and Poland. The editors of this book have been cooperating for several years; they are trying to combine economic and sociological perspectives in research on contemporary capitalist economies and modern postcapitalist societies. 135 Seiten mit drei Abb., gebunden (V&R unipress 2023) leichte Lagerspuren, leicht bestoßen, Einband leicht beschabt, Mängelexemplarstempel auf Fußschnitt/unused, minor shelfwear, slightly bumped, cover slightly scuffed, remainder mark stamp on edge
