Summary


Scientific progress - from creating better medicines to
building better bridges or designing improved technology networks - can lead to
intriguing business opportunities, but business expertise is not always a
natural companion to scientific excellence. Scientists require a nuanced
understanding of the modern business environment to successfully navigate the
commercial world and maximise the economic potential of their ideas.




Management for
Scientists explores the core theories and practices in management studies
today in a context applicable to those working in the scientific industries.
Essential business concepts covered include corporate strategy and business
planning, organisation structure, management and operations, and labour and
human resources, and these are all viewed through the prism of building,
maintaining and developing a scientific business in the pharmaceutical,
biotechnology, engineering, maths, and computing sectors.




Chapters feature a range of real-world examples from modern
science-driven businesses, presented by experienced scientists with
demonstrated strategic and economic business expertise.
