Description

The ability to gather, analyse, evaluate, present and utilise information is an essential competency for the modern manager and is the essence of business research. Written in an easy-to-read style, Business Research Methods: a managerial approach 2e assumes the reader has no prior research or statistics knowledge. The text provides a broad overview of a range of contemporary business research methods, from critical interpretive perspectives through questionnaire survey methods and observation, to experimental methodologies, whilst striking a balance between differing perspectives and not adopting a favoured approach. The book uses the latest version of software packages, SPSS (v.12) and Nvivo (v.2) to introduce questionnaire data analysis, statistical and analysis and qualitative data analysis.
