Instructor Resources
This book is accompanied by a set of resources for instructors, including a test bank, a slide deck, and whiteboard animation videos for each chapter. These have all been prepared with input from the authors of the book. For details on how to access these resources, please contact bruno.dyck@umanitoba.ca.
The chapters in this book have been written with three things in mind:
- Ease of adoptability. The authors performed content analyses of leading management textbooks to ensure the book covers all the mainstream material, and is organized in chapters that follow a traditional planning, organizing, leading and controlling format.
- Relevance to the social and ecological challenges students will face during their careers. Each chapter presents differences between FBL, TBL, and SET management. In particular, the book recognizes that the Triple Bottom Line has become the new dominant approach, and provides chapters on each of the three bottom lines: financial, ecological, and social well-being. The book also recognizes that many practitioners and scholars are pointing to the need for SET management if humankind is to address the social and ecological crises it is facing.
- Engagement with students. In addition to a reader-friendly format, each chapter starts with a short whiteboard animation video, provides an engaging opening case, and concludes with an opportunity for students to consider the material in an entrepreneurial context (note that the book has been designed so that instructors who do not wish to have an entrepreneurial focus can easily drop that portion of the chapter).
