Face to Face with Practice: Existential Forms of Research for Management Inquiry

By Claire Jankelson and Steven Segal

Coming Face to Face with your own practice is an emerging approach to management and professional research that has a significant impact on management practice, closing the gap between theory and practice. An existential form of research means that the researcher carefully attends to their experience of researching and managing. This book demonstrates that by bringing an existential sensibility to research, unexpected possibilities for research and for professionality, are revealed.

This is about making a difference: a difference to the way that management is practiced; to the experience of the manager; and towards a more humane and thoughtful approach to managing our society today.
