Bøker av Chester I. Barnard

Barnard was prompted by Vilfredo Pareto's seminal four volume work Mind and Society to apply his theories of sociology to management studies.

Most of Barnard's career was spent in executive practice. A Mount Hermon and Harvard education, cut off short of the bachelor's degree, was followed by nearly 40 years in AT&T. His association with Elton Mayo and the latter's colleagues at the Harvard Business School had an important bearing on his most original ideas.
