Description and Table of Contents
Description
Robert Blake and Jane Mouton, 30 years ago, introduced what has become the most widely used, proven and productive management development system in the world - "The Grid". Today, its value and relevance are greater than ever before. This book is a key for mobilizing human effort and igniting human performance in any business or industrial setting. Through its application, a manager can unleash and utilize creative energy of the kind needed to become and remain competitive in this era of innovation and change. "The Grid" is not merely a theory or formula - it is a tested system which has been applied in industry and which in each case has contributed significantly to increased profits. One large industrial complex attributed 30 percent of its profit increase directly to this book and its organization development work. The book provides an operational blueprint of change and development for both the individual and the organization. The approach is fundamental, and it is written in simple language. It is addressed to all members of business and industrial organizations, from president to supervisor, as well as to students who are preparing for managerial careers.
