About the Author

Dean Meyer is a pioneer in applying science to the art of building high-performance organizations.

He doesn't come at it with motivational pep talks, executive training, or "touchy-feely" interpersonal dynamics. Instead, he takes a very systematic approach to designing the organizational environment that staff live in... the system of influences that make or break people's performance.

Meyer combines this breakthrough thinking with down to earth practicality, and distills leading-edge concepts into pragmatic implementation processes.

He's developed a method to change corporate culture in less than one year based on learning theory.

He's researched and applied an entirely new science of organizational structure based on cybernetics.

He's invented a tool-kit for activity-based budgeting that makes it practical for an organization to price its entire product line.

And he's been a leader in applying market economics within companies to design their resource-management processes -- the "perestroika" of the modern corporation.

The result: Meyer helps leaders convert bureaucracies into vibrant entrepreneurial organizations based on the "business-within-a-business" paradigm.

Meyer is a native of San Francisco. He received a BS from the University of California at Berkeley, and earned an MBA from Stanford. He founded his consulting practice, NDMA, in 1982.
