Rosabeth Moss Kanter is at the forefront of management thinking and practice--a leading figure in the attack on organizational rigidities, boundaries, and top- down traditions whose ideas are spearheading a period of great discovery and change in the business world. Here, for the first time, is the essential Kanter: the cutting-edge ideas and wisdom of nearly two decades that are even more relevant today. With Rosabeth Moss Kanter on the Frontiers of Management, the renowned management guru presents a sweeping look back across a decade of change in business--what has worked well, what hasn't, and what businesses still need to learn--as well as a penetrating look forward at the hard work of leadership and innovation still to be done. In this landmark book, Kanter has integrated all her Harvard Business Review articles and the framing essays she wrote as Editor into a powerful new statement. The six sections span today's most critical topics--strategy, innovation, customer focus, global trends, planning for change, strategic alliances, compensation systems, and community responsibility. They are joined by overviews and a fresh new introductory chapter to reinforce a single, timeless message: the importance of treating people as assets and of providing the tools and conditions that liberate them to use their brainpower to make a difference. Ever at the frontier, Kanter has published this book as a compelling call to action. Together, her articles and essays crystallize the real work of business leaders and serve as a provocative reminder of why they should never lose sight of the fact that values--and people--are the foundation of business success.
