INTRODUCTIONIn a fast-changing world, what worked yesterday probably doesn't work today. Peter.F Drucker

father of modern management theory argues that much of what is now taught and believedabout the practice of management is either wrong or seriously out of date. Management

thinkers are agreeing on the notion that as the professionals advance deeper into the knowledgeeconomy, the basic assumptions underlying much of what is taught and practiced in the name

of management are hopelessly out of date. Todays leaders and/or managers are dealing withcontinual, rapid change. Managers faced with a major decision can no longer refer back to an

earlier developed plan for direction. Management techniques must continually notice changes

in the environment and organization, assess this change and manage change. Managing changedoes not mean controlling it, rather understanding it, adapting to it where necessary and

guiding it when possible. In the future organizational decision-making will be more peer-

based; the tools of creativity will be widely distributed in organizations; ideas will compete on

an equal footing; strategies will be built from the bottom up; and power will be a function ofcompetence rather than of position. As per the views of Great Management Guru, Sh. C.K.

Prahlad volatility is the biggest issue concerning business men who had never dealt withvolatility like this before and many are not sure whether they have a effective business modelto deal with such factors and their way of dealing can make or break the organizations in the

days to come.The Conference theme Managing Global Business in Turbulent times tacklesthe key issues facing managers regarding how to manage in rapidly changing

environments.Authors are therefore encouraged to address topics on theme which have had apivotal or significant impact on industries, firms and academic communities
