This book explores the Complementary Management Model. Building on extensive theoretical considerations on management and leadership, it outlines the seven elements of the model: the management actors (1) jointly fulfil management tasks (2) serving two management functions (3) by performing management routines (4) and applying formal management instruments (5), which requires management resources (6) and management unit structures (7).

The concept of management is well established and very familiar to scholars and practitioners alike. However, it is also very generic, with no agreed upon definition and no consistency in the demarcation between it and its sub-concepts and other similar terms. Building on an in-depth analysis of literature, this book establishes a precise understanding of management and systematically integrates its sub-concepts of organization, governance, strategic management, human resource management, leadership, and organizational culture. It thus provides a clear theoretical and conceptual framework, helping researchers to theorize and practitioners to implement corporate management models.

Human resource (HR) governance is a relatively new construct that has recently begun attracting more and more attention in both research and practice. As a part of corporate governance, it represents the internal and external normative framework of human resource management and its supervision in organizations. This book theoretically integrates HR governance with the related domains of corporate governance, general management, HR management, and leadership. By doing so, it provides scholars and practitioners in the field with a precisely delineated system of theoretical concepts for their work and helps to translate these concepts into concrete research questions and practical guidelines. By interpreting the new ISO 30408 norm on human governance and taking into account recent developments, the book helps to comply with and anticipate current and future HR regulations.
