Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
The next time you find yourself stood at the magazine stand at an airport or train station, take a step back and see if you can find any common themes among the hundreds of titles in front of you, jostling with each other for your attention. Aside from some tricks of the merchandising trade – some titles will have greater prominence at the front of their section, most popular subjects will be at eyeline, and most promoted titles will be evident by double facing or separate holders – you may notice some of the magazine covers that jump out at you more than others. It might be because of the celebrity on the cover or perhaps a striking color scheme. But there is probably something else which is perhaps more difficult to put your finger on.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers’ hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
