Item description from seller

Neuware - PROJECT SYNOPSIS 'Running The Corporate Rapids' My intention was to create a book on the organizational and psychological ramifications of transforming traditional corporate cultures into flexible, dynamic, agile business enterprises. This is not a new theme, in fact, much has been written on the subject by several authors. What differentiates this work from that of previous publications is that it is written from the perspective of someone that has been 'in the trenches' as both an operational CEO and a Business Consultant. Previous attempts at 'how to' books on this subject have dealt largely with the structural/organizational aspects of this transformation and have not effectively addressed the human behavioral component.

The message behind the book will be 'Creating a New Common Sense in Business.' In the past American business has, at best, given lip service to the concept of putting people first. We have been resource based enterprises (money, bricks & sticks, equipment, etc.) Today we have left the Industrial (resource based) Era, have transition.…
