Management is not a profession

Update: 2010-08-17

Description

There is no definable body of knowledge that constitutes the skills of management says Dr Richard Barker, a former Director of the Cambridge MBA. It has no professional body controlling membership, enabling practice or exclusion and there can never be one because "management does not have a narrowly defined body of knowledge".
