In this book, Kumar argues for the value of looking at
businesses as a collection of processes that cut across
departments and for breaking down functional silos. He
introduces students to the topic, beginning with basic
concepts and moving to more advanced topics such as
flexible processes, resource assignment, and social
networks. Blending a strong grounding in current research
with a focus on concepts and tools, this is an accessible
textbook full of practical examples and cases that will
appeal to upper level students.
