It often seems counterintuitive to stop the clock and take time to think things through. Philosophy, on the other hand, addresses the basic questions of our existence, our identity, our role in the world and the models for living that might inspire our actions. By understanding philosophy, it becomes more possible to provide meaning to many of our management practices and to business at large, while enhancing self-satisfaction and happiness at work. This latest book from Professor Santiago Iniguez presents a collection of management ideas inspired by renowned philosophers. It provides a framework, as well of a series of business situations, for analyzing decisions from the perspective of values and principles. With insights on topics such as, how to gain respect at work, how to cultivate an optimistic outlook and how to shrug off failure, it offers timeless advice for managers that can be applied for their personal and professional development. Offering a unique perspective and valuable insights on what leadership is, and the relevance of values and principles to becoming a successful, recognized manager, this book presents a thoughtful guide to anyone who wants to install meaning into their management practices and their lives. 001453690 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 3, 2023). 001453690 650_0 $$aManagement$$xPhilosophy. 001453690 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001453690 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031204824$$z9783031204821$$w(OCoLC)1346531203 001453690 852__ $$bebk 001453690 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-20483-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001453690 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1453690$$pGLOBAL_SET 001453690 980__ $$aBIB 001453690 980__ $$aEBOOK 001453690 982__ $$aEbook 001453690 983__ $$aOnline 001453690 994__ $$a92$$bISE
