Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
Looking at business trends in the 2000s, one of the most dominant themes has been the use of evidence-based decision-making. This is not to say that all twentieth century business decisions were done on the fly with little use of the data available – although shows like Mad Men may make you think otherwise – but the computer and internet age that dawned in the 1980s and 1990s, and the knock-on effect for business school teaching that this had, has meant that the mantra of evidence-based decision-making is now a staple of any sensible firm.
Practical implications
The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
