Opis

Based on both fundamental theory and practical experience, this volume identifies a broad range of approaches that should better equip individuals and organizations to not only react in time to change but to become pro-active in creating positive futures for themselves and their organizations. It takes the position that no single activity will assure sucess, and is grounded in field-tested theories about innovation and leadership. The international team of contributors includes Peter Beerten and Kaat Exterbille of Belgium, Tom Lyons of Ireland and Frank Keckman of the United States.
