Organizations in Time

History, Theory, Methods

By: Marcelo Bucheli, R. Daniel Wadhwani

Narrated by: Kyle Tait

Why does history matter to our understanding of management, organizations, and markets? What theoretical insights can it offer into organizational processes? How can scholars use historical sources and methods to address research questions in management and organization studies?

This book brings together leading organization scholars and business historians to examine the opportunities and challenges of incorporating historical research into the study of firms and markets. It examines the reasons for the growing interest in historically grounded research in management departments and business schools, and considers both the intellectual and practical questions the endeavor faces.

Nothing practical

I expected to get an education on organizational designs, mindsets and models that could be used in the real world

There was nothing like that in here. Could be interesting for someone interested in reading history but not those looking for actionable information
