This book explores a major media management topic on the basis of case study research conducted in European, US and Brazilian media companies.

The book contemplates the discipline of Media Management through a management lens and focuses on the concept of employee involvement and its value with regard to successfully introducing change and achieving organizational development.

The book is directed towards researchers and students, as well as practitioners/professionals involved with media organizations.
