The domain of organisational control

Abstract

Organisational control concerns everyone. Whether you are a manager attempting to run a department, a politician trying to frame legislation to control multinational corporations, or just an individual affected by the activities of the many organisations that have an impact on you, organisational control is a fundamental issue of modern life. In what ways are organisations controlled? By whom and how? And how can we influence what they do? These are some of the questions that this book tries to answer.
