Managers and the Legal Environment: Strategies for Business [With eBook]

With new cases and examples torn from the headlines, MANAGERS AND THE LEGAL ENVIRONMENT: STRATEGIES FOR BUSINESS, 9E equips you with the legal knowledge and risk management techniques for success as a business manager. Cutting-edge coverage and a strategic approach teach you to enhance realizable value, redeploy resources, and manage legal and business risk.

You learn to use legal tools to create value, attain business objectives, resolve legal issues, manage risk, and handle legal disputes.
