Description

A seemingly endless parade of consultants, academics and journalists continue to pontificate about management, leadership and the dream of the perfect organization. But only a tiny fraction have really changed the way business works. These are the gurus. In this new edition of worldwide bestseller, The Ultimate Business Guru Book, the authors have assembled the greatest business gurus in a unique, one-stop guide. The book keeps business leaders ahead of double-speaking colleagues and consultants by bringing them rapidly up to speed with the very best that the world's business thinkers currently have to offer.
