Product Description
Growing Pains: Transitioning from an Entrepreneurship to a Professionally Managed Firm (9780787986162): Eric G. Flamholtz, Yvonne Randle: Books. The entrepreneurs who need this book are already successful, experiencing spectacular growth. Of limited use to small business owners, Flamholtz's principles are more helpful for major firms trying to analyze potential or actual problems. Flamholtz's style is erudite, almost textbookish in tone, but he makes a genuine contribution to management literature. He offers a unified prescription for management, integrating ideas on topics ranging from product life cycle to leadership styles to organizational structure. He contrasts and explains entrepreneurial and professional management styles, explaining which is needed when, and why the use of the wrong style has led to the demise of some very large firms. Paul Hawken's Growing a Business (S. & S., 1987) is more popular in approach with more nitty-gritty advice for small businesses. Flamholtz is recommended for management collections.- Sue McKimm, Cuya hoga Cty. P.L., ClevelandCopyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc.
