Management in Islamic Countries: Principles and Practice - Paperback

by Ummesalma Mujtaba Husein (Author)

The recent growth and interest in Islamic finance has left many business CEOs, students, and managers around the world without an inside view of Islamic management-until now. This book offers an Islamic perspective on business ethics, marketing, leadership, and human resource management, and the author explains it all with a true inside understanding. The author also includes insight into the Islamic religion and how that affects business and overall management. From a personal, firsthand experience and perspective, the author provides an authentic picture of Islamic management. This book includes models, exercises and examples, discussion questions, and study questions; and if you're conducting research into this area, it includes references for additional readings.
