Handbook of Strategies and Tools for the
Learning Company |
|
Author: C. Carl Pegels
Many books on management improvement focus on the newest fads without
providing an understanding of the whole system that is being affected by the
new approach. Even the concept of a learning organization has been reduced
by many to a meaningless fad.
Here, however, we comprehend the substance of that exciting new wave of
management thought. This is a management book that goes beyond the current
fads to the very core of what it means to be a learning company. To truly
learn, a company must use a variety of techniques and approaches. This book
combines the best of management strategies, from the tried and true
techniques to new innovations into a complete and powerful management tool.
In Handbook of Strategies and Tools for the Learning Company, Carl Pegels
provides keen insight into the dilemma faced by innovative managers as they
try to make sense of the plethora of new management tools available today.
He shows us learning companies in action with real-world examples from
companies including Motorola, IBM, Ford, Boeing, and Saturn. Arranged in
eight parts and 34 chapters, this handbook is a powerful resource spanning
today's most critical management topics - empowerment of employees, teams
and participation, successful restructuring, outsourcing components and
services, improving productivity and efficiency, customers and product
management, and the use of analytical tools. It is a powerful, comprehensive
resource for management practitioners.
Companies will not prosper by distracting themselves with the latest fads.
Real and continuous learning is the only way to gain and sustain a
competitive advantage. With this book, management practitioners now have a
complete resource for increasing the health of an organization and its
ability to move forward effectively and competitively into the 21st century.
