Dear Colleagues,
It's my pleasure to inform that M@n@gement has just published a
special issue on Organizational Downsizing (Jack Rabin, Guest Editor).
This set of 17 articles is a great resource for courses in Strategic
Management, OB/OMT, or HRM. You'll find conceptual as well as
empirical articles. Some are research-oriented, others are
practioners-oriented. You'll also have examples, both from the US and
from abroad.
You can download the articles (full text) for free from the following address:

Enjoy!
