Jones/George’s Crucial Aspects of Modern Management is a condensed version of Contemporary Management. The authors’ focus is on the challenge of “Bringing It to Life” for students. The authors offer management in a manner that maintains its relevance to students, even if they lack exposure to an “real-world” management context. This is achieved through a varied array of examples and the most popular feature of the text, “Manager as an Individual” (Ch. 2). This chapter explores managers as authentic individuals with their own characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and issues. This theme perseveres throughout the subsequent chapters. Deliberations arise regarding the significance of Leadership Abilities – the specific array of skills, talents, and experiences that endow one manager with the capacity to perform at a higher level than another in a specific context. The themes of variety, ethics, globalization, and information technology are intertwined throughout.
