The world is changing. The information and network society represents a different kind of society than the industrial society we once knew. In such a rapidly evolving context, business is also changing. We are called to rethink fundamental concepts from scratch.
How is competition addressed? What is the new role of leadership? What constitutes an effective organization? What is the function of markets? How can we beneficially manage the uncertainty and complexity of today’s postmodern world? What is the future of the market economy?
What Alvin Toffler called the "Third Wave" is now here. However, we lack the appropriate conceptual tools to fully understand it and foresee its consequences.
In this book, some of the most prominent thinkers in business management, such as Charles Handy, Michael Porter, Gary Hamel, Peter Senge, Lester Thurow, Warren Bennis, and others, outline in simple terms the society and economy of the future and describe the new role of business within it.
If you want to understand the changes happening around you, if you want to see the new form that business and its management will take in the new digital economy and networked society, we highly recommend this book.
