Description

This book brings together all of Rosabeth Moss Kanter's "Harvard Business Review" articles and many of the editorial columns that she wrote when she was editor of "HBR". The pieces span a variety of topics: strategy, innovation, customer focus, global trends, planning for change, strategic alliances, compensation systems, and community responsibility - all brought together to enforce a single, timeless message: the importance of treating people as assets, not costs, and providing the tools and conditions that liberate people to use their brainpower to make a difference. It is a "Harvard Business Review" book.
