The Emergent Manager examines the process of becoming a manager within
organizations and considers how people relate the ways in which they
′manage′ their lives to their development as managers in the
workplace. At the heart of the book is the idea of the individual
engaged in a continual process of ′becoming′. Focusing on the
reported experiences of managers, the book is richly illustrated
throughout with examples drawn from a variety of workplaces, including
the civil service, academia, the retail industry, construction and
engineering, banking and the prison service. Tony Watson and Pauline
Harris together provide a new understanding of the nature of the
management role and the ways in which people make sense of their lives
as managers. Accessible and innovative, this book will be of interest
to students and academics in management and organization studies as
well as practising managers.
