Management as Life’s Essence: 30 Years of the Nature of Managerial Work

Instituto de Empresa, Spain, and INCAE, Costa Rica

Henry Mintzberg

McGill University, Canada

Thirty years ago, Henry Mintzberg published his book The Nature of Managerial Work(1973). By observing how managers perform their everyday tasks and by categorizing what they do, this celebrated book contributed to advancing our understanding of how organizations work, how strategies develop and how they are applied by organizations. In this interview, conducted after a symposium at the 2003 Academy of Management meetings in Seattle, I asked Henry Mintzberg to revisit his work, to reflect on its success and to discuss his current views on management.
