Summary: Changing Paradigms
Comment: This book achieves what it sets out to achieve in the preface - to "synthesise the central shifts of management thought and practice in the late twentieth century and into the next millennium". The authors provide a convincing argument about the need to reconsider management thinking and practice. The topics discussed in each chapter are timely and relevant. These include globalization, digitalization and sustainability.

In the final chapter, the authors state that an organization's ultimate goals should be based on sustainability and ecological approaches rather than profit and growth. For some managers this will be a radical shift.

The book gets four stars rather than five as it is not the first book of its kind and there will be managers who have heard much of this information before. However, even for these managers the book provides a useful summary of the latest management thinking.
