Description
This study explains why methods of management which worked in the 1940s cannot keep pace with the 1990s. It introduces an entrepreneurial approach instead that meets today's challenges. Demonstrating how to create self-organizing, internal market economies that bring the advantages of the free enterprise system inside the company, this book includes case studies from MCI, Esso, Alcoa and other international companies.
