Description
This book describes the dream of tomorrow's organization and sets out a strategy for implementing visionary ideas today. By using examples from forward thinking companies (including BP, Federal Express and Benetton), the author illustrates the way ahead in structuring an organization in order to stay ahead of competition and improve efficiency. The underlying framework of the book provides managers and MBA students alike with a map for understanding this new approach, know as "organizational networking", offering suggestions to stretch managers and encourage new possibilities.
