Management Through the Woods and Over the Rivers is based on Outdoor Based Experiential Training Programme (OBET) or Outdoor Management Style, which speaks of twenty-five years ahead of time. The objectives of Outdoor Management are elaborated in depth and a case study based on the experiences of five selected industries is presented in this book.
