Synopsis
This enchanting story about love, life and the philosophy of organisations offers a novel approach to companies in decline, with people forming the living core around which all other organisational forces pivot. The turnaround expert usually enters an environment of fear and distrust. Ten Lessons shows us how to conquer those barriers by setting alight the human spirit. Part fable, part science lesson, part walk through history, the book builds on some familiar themes, like retaining predictibility in high velocity organisations, developing tolerance for uncertainty, maintaining fleibility, and transcending crude power. The most refreshing perspectives encourage us to regard employees as entrepreneurs who seed the organisation with their intellectual and spiritual capital. Instead of accounting for profit, the author urges us to measure the value of the human heart, the mind, and the spirit.
