Summary, etc "This book is a valuable addition to the literature on the subject of managerial effectiveness.... The presentation of the material has been quite systematic, selective and well-designed.... In-depth analysis of knowledge is extremely useful for students and teachers in this field. The book is very neatly planned and very methodically presented. Good printing, free of typographical errors is a quality of this well turned out book. The book would be definitely of interest to those engaged in the fields of management and business studies, organizational behaviour and social psychology. Corporate managers, more specifically the public sector managers, would find the book a rich source of valuable material." --Indian Journal of Industrial Relations "Apart from the findings, one of the strengths of this book is the methodology adopted by the author, i.e., the integration of quantitative and qualitative data and the interface it provides between social reality, management theory, and corporate policy. Second, the comparison between the public and private sectors, the profit-making and loss-making organizations, and externality- and internality-oriented managers make the book interesting." --South Asian Journal of Management "The strength of Professor Singhal's work lies in her approach to the study of managerial effectiveness in a multi-method multi-variate framework. Her effort to use earlier Indian work in related areas has resulted in a book that will be helpful to researchers. The interpretation of results shows a good understanding of the existing work as well as the ground realities in Indian organisations... A welcome addition to the sparse Indian work in the area." --Management & Labour Studies Managerial effectiveness in the corporate world has assumed renewed significance given new trade and tariff relations, rapid political and economic changes throughout the globe, and a virtual metamorphosis in management theories and practices. This timely book examines the numerous dimensions of managerial effectiveness in the context of the Indian economy which is rapidly liberalizing and posing new challenges to Indian industry and business. Singhal begins by discussing the problem of managerial effectiveness and by evaluating a number of theoretical models. She builds a case for an integrative framework that views managerial effectiveness as a dynamic concept, and goes on to outline specific issues in corporate management. The core of this study comprises a quantitative analysis of the psychological dispositions, time management, goal achievement, role perceptions, confidence, and professional commitment of senior managers in both the private and public sectors.
