From Publishers Weekly:
The consulting firm McKinsey & Company supported and encouraged Katzenbach to address an issue facing all organizations?change. It's the same issue that has Vice-President Al Gore talking about "reinventing government" and Peter Drucker urging managers to "rediscover leadership." Numerous corporations are downsizing, restructuring or revamping. Yet the steps taken to do so may limit the resulting organizations' ability to further adapt, because workers with superior skills are terminated and middle managers with leadership skills are eliminated. Katzenbach et al. argue that the key to changing performance capability in dynamic companies is a new breed of middle manager?The Real Change Leader (RCL). Common characteristics of RCLs are outlined and illustrated with examples. The RCLs connect three forces of organizational change: top aspirations, work force productivity and marketplace reality. This book is highly recommended to all corporate executives who want to learn about effective leadership in large organizations.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A team at McKinsey & Company set out to discover why some companies were able to change and to on to higher performance levels while most others got bogged down. Their extensive research came to a surprising conclusion: the make-or-break factor is not top management, but a new breed in the middle - real change leaders. They're middle managers and business professionals who are breaking the mould of good management with a unique combination of tough performance standards and a fresh sense of how to inspire and motivate the workforce - skills uniquely in touch with the needs of today's marketplace and company growth plans. For a change effort to be successful, people throughout the organization need to learn new skills and behaviours. This book tells the story of how this is taking place through the eyes of the people who made it happen - middle managers on the front lines, responsible for doing things like increasing revenues, developing new products, changing the ways customers are served, and improving financial performance. Examples include: how Compaq's operation in Scotland brought the price of a computer down by two-thirds, and redefined every aspect of manufacturing, from the workplace to the role of the supervisor; how real change leaders at General Electric Motors set the basis for increasing return on total capital from zero to over 20 per cent in three years; how UNOCAL's Los Angeles plant reduced total operating expenses by 20 per cent, while making layoffs out of bounds; how New York City Transit Authority wiped out graffiti, cut crime by 60 per cent, turned around basic operations, and began the long climb to becoming a customer-focused organization in what may be the toughest operating environment for a service business. These and other examples provide results which show what can happen when middle managers become real change leaders and are given free rein to do real work. Instead of the stereotypical report writers and information transmitters reviled in the business press, they assume a new role: the energizing linchpin between customers, employees and senior executives. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001792478
