Synopsis

In this ambitious and wide-ranging book, Browne tells the story of the Great Plains Coca-Cola Bottling Company and of his career-long journey to find a better way - more efficient, more caring, more capable - for the people and the processes under his leadership.He developed Sys-tao, a process oriented environment as opposed to a "command and control" structure. Browne's business ideas were inspired by the convergences he found everywhere in the world from eastern spirituality to biological evolution, to modern neuroscience. The Sys-tao philosophy transformed his business to record profits and industry-leading customer and employee satisfaction. Sys-tao is best described as a management book with soul.
