Brief Description
A new way to compete -- and succeed -- in the collaborative marketplace! What really works? Hard driving competitiveness or friendly collaboration? Neither, say experts Harvey Robbins and Michael Finley. In this wake-up call to the business community, the award-winning team that gave us "Why Teams Don't Work" outlines a groundbreaking new concept in management style called trascompetition. An innovative combination of the best tactics of combat and the new spirit of teamwork, transcompetition can help transform your business practices far more effectively than anything you are doing right now.

From the Author

Stop winning today only to be beaten tomorrow!
This book is about a phenomenon we see in business and life called the Brute Cycle. Those who love winning at others' expense are eventually brought down by the people they beat. This book points toward a new way of playing that avoids the worst excesses of blood-and-guts competition, grafting the best aspects of competitive fire and cooperative spirit.
