Ivey Business Journal (IBJ),first published in 1933, was launched with the objective of improving the practice of management. As Canada's leading magazine of business thought and management practice, each bi-monthly issue tackles subject matters that are important to managers everywhere: Innovation, Leadership, Knowledge Management, and other topics that managers need to know more about to steer their firms to success. IBJ articles are written by some of the world’s leading management thinkers, consultants and practitioners. And as always, they deliver practical suggestions that readers will be able to apply to their own organization or situation. This collection of IBJ articles was carefully selected for their relevance to Chinese managers.
