About the Authors:
Bruno Dyck, is a Full Professor and holds the Norman Frohlich Professorship in Business Sustainability at the I.H. Asper School of Business, University of Manitoba. Bruno loves being a management professor, scholar and teacher. His research has been published in many top management journals, he has written several other textbooks, and he has received teaching awards in his School, his University, and was the first business scholar to win the international Expanded Reason Award (Pedagogy) in 2019 (click here for more information).
He is especially excited about the newest edition “Management: Financial, Social, and Ecological Well-being” because it brings together a new team of co-authors from around the world, it can be used for free by students, and it helps prepare students for the social and ecological challenges they will be facing in their career.
“The book takes seriously the social and ecological problems facing humankind, and describes management theory and practice regarding what managers can do to address these issues.” In particular, he remains excited about the Social and Ecological Thought (SET) management approach, because he believes it will become increasingly relevant for managers and others (and for the planet). Empirical research shows that teaching multiple approaches to management is an effective ways to increase critical thinking and ethical thinking in the business school (see the "Related Research" tab).
Finally, Bruno is excited that the book has an ongoing emphasis on entrepreneurship. “This is something I’ve always incorporated when I’ve taught Management. The way the book is set up harnesses students’ energy for starting a new venture, and uses that as a context to apply management concepts in an organizational setting.” That said, Bruno is quick to add that the book has been structured in such a way so that instructors can easily exclude the sections dealing with entrepreneurship, which are placed at the end of each chapter.
