Technology. Deregulation. Privatization. Globalization. No business today is unaffected by these forces, as they feed on each other in a whirlwind of change. This book brings together the best ideas from the Harvard Business Review on managing change in a business environment that feels like it is always moving at fast forward. In 15 articles and interviews, Fast Forward considers the future of organizations, the process of accelerating change, and the new role of management. It features contributions from the top executives and management thinkers of today, including Peter Drucker, Michael Hammer, Rosabeth Moss Kanter, John P. Kotter, Noel Tichy, Paul Allaire of Xerox, and Percy Barnevik of ABB. In two essays written especially for this collection, James Champy and Nitin Nohria reflect on the central truths of all business change, discuss the vital leadership traits of authenticity and credibility, and attack the twin enemies of change-orthodoxy and dogma.
