Each case study includes an audit procedure, the main research methods used and key findings, providing both a unique understanding and different working definitions of design management in action. The book focuses on design management policy audits from selected companies, emphasizing the importance of communication. It also includes descriptions of the overall nature of design management, together with review and project questions that will enable the development and teaching of design management and design auditing. It provides useful insights into the way that design can be used as a strategic business tool. This invaluable textbook is a welcome contribution to design management, for those studying, teaching and practising in the area.
