Adaptive Enterprise: Creating and Leading Sense-And-Respond Organizations Tapa dura - 1999

Información de la editorial

Can large, complex organizations possibly adapt in a systematic way to the unpredictable demands of rapid, relentless change? Yes, says Stephan Haeckel -- if the organization is designed and managed as an adaptive system. In fact, the only kind of strategy that makes sense in the face of change is a strategy to become adaptive. In "Adaptive Enterprise," Haeckel outlines the new sense-and-respond business model that helps companies anticipate, adapt, and respond to continually changing customer needs. He maps out a step-by-step plan that firms can use to transform themselves into a new type of organization, one where change is not a problem to be solved, but rather a source of energy, growth, and value.

"Adaptive Enterprise" is both a new way of thinking about business and a prescription for leadership of post-industrial organizations. It is, as Adrian Slywotzky says in his foreword, "a book that will influence the influencers of business thought."
