Book 6

This volume received contributions from a range of scholars by encouraging participation in active scholarship by "accentuating the positive". It reflects and contributes to common themes in management with strong emphasis on theory; major attention to organization features and effectiveness; important behavioural outcomes in organizations; substantial attention to the public sector; and introductory to what the new millennium may mean for scholars study. This volume is based on some of the best papers presented at the 7th International Conference on Advances in Management (ICAM) held in July 2000 at Colorado Springs. There is a full double-blind review process that attempts to breathe more beauty and truth into pieces that were presented in earlier forms at an ICAM.
