Chapter 1 (1.6) highlights seven challenges facing any manager. Managers need to manage for competitive advantage—to stay ahead of rivals. Managers must deal with information technology and address the “new normal” of data. They need to manage for diversity in race, ethnicity, gender, and so on, because the future won’t resemble the past. Managers also need to manage for the effects of globalization, as well as always needing to manage to maintain ethical standards. Moreover, they need to manage for sustainability—to practice sound environmental policies. Finally, managers need to manage for the achievement of their own happiness and life goals.
