This one discusses management concepts that have been the most influential to companies over the years and the changes - so for example when I did my degree in the 90's the Japanese concept of Kaizen was very popular now it isn’t. It also gives a sort summary on the most influential leaders and thinkers e.g., Deming, Drucker, Ulrich, Taylor and others. Lots of leadership references in this book I would highly recommend it.
