From the Inside Flap
To succeed in business today, organizations must learn to color outside the lines. In the words of Jack Welch, the much-quoted CEO of General Electric, organizations have to become "boundaryless." In The Boundaryless Organization, this top team of management experts shows how to sweep away the artificial obstacles of hierarchy, turf, and geography that too often stand in the way of outstanding business performance. They demonstrate how top organizations such as Samsung, Morgan Bank, and SmithKline Beecham are busting boundaries on all fronts, each enjoying stellar results by encouraging the flow of ideas, resources, and talents in and out of the organization, up and down the hierarchy, and across geographic boundaries.
