Synopsis

Challenging Colonizing Logics within Management Research disrupts the assumption that the Western scientific method, with its emphasis on objectivity, measurement and categorizations is the best way to develop management knowledge. By reviewing the history of management as a discipline, Donna Ladkin exposes how colonizing logics have been ‘baked into’ the fabric of management practice and how it is studied.

The book offers alternative approaches to each stage of the research journey, demonstrating how working differently can produce management knowledge that reflects the nuances, tensions and dynamism present whenever humans undertake purposeful action together. Lived examples of research conducted in ways that move beyond colonizing logics bring this radical approach alive.

Researchers, students of management and leadership as well as practitioners who want to think differently about management will welcome this innovative and thought-provoking book.
