What fuels long-term business success? Not operational excellence,
technology breakthroughs, or new business models, but management
innovation--new ways of mobilizing talent, allocating resources, and
formulating strategies. Through history, management innovation has
enabled companies to cross new performance thresholds and build enduring
advantages.
In The Future of Management, Gary Hamel argues that organizations need
management innovation now more than ever. Why? The management paradigm
of the last century--centered on control and efficiency--no longer
suffices in a world where adaptability and creativity drive business
success. To thrive in the future, companies must reinvent management.
Hamel explains how to turn your company into a serial management
innovator, revealing:
The make-or-break challenges that will determine competitive success in
an age of relentless, head-snapping change.
The toxic effects of traditional management beliefs.
The unconventional management practices generating breakthrough results
in "modern management pioneers."
The radical principles that will need to become part of every company's
"management DNA."
The steps your company can take now to build your "management
advantage."
Practical and profound, The Future of Management features examples
from Google, W.L. Gore, Whole Foods, IBM, Samsung, Best Buy, and other
blue-ribbon management innovators.
