The sixth Canadian edition presents management in a way that makes its relevance obvious even to students who may lack exposure to a "real-life" management context.

Jones relates management theory to real life examples and drives home the message that management matters. Management matters because it determines how well organizations perform, and because managers and organizations affect the lives of people who work inside and the people outside the organization, such as customers, communities, and shareholders. Essentials of Contemporary Management , Sixth Canadian edition, provides a concise offering of current management theories and research.

A hallmark of this text is its focus on the "Manager as a Person," which discusses managers as real people with their own personalities, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and problems.
