Assignment: Model 1 Homework
Management Philosophies
The first section was to conduct a critical assessment of two of the following theorists. They include Drucker, porter, Deming, Collins, and Blanchard. The first theorists that I identified from the list is Michael Porter. Porter is an American academic who is known for the various contributions that he has made in business, economics, and sociology studies. He is mainly renowned for developing business strategy solutions that are applicable in many companies across the world. One of the major management philosophies that he developed is known as the Porter’s Five Forces. The model provides a perspective to companies on how they can assess the competition that they face within the industry.
