Title: EXCELLENT GRAND TOUR OF NEW IDEAS FOR ORGANIZATION & HRM
Review: An ambitious overview of new approaches to human resources. Key to the book are five adaptive strategies: choosing to invest in people; adopting a new set of beliefs; redefining organizational culture; transforming management practices; and ensuring a fit between the first four strategies based on purpose, culture, and management practices and policies. The adaptive strategies involve rethinking how to achieve business results, reexamining how work is organized, and transforming how people are managed. The book concludes with the effects of adaptive cultures and practices on organizational performance. We at Stern's Management Review (www.FutureOrganization) find this to be an excellent grand tour of new ideas and practices in organization and human resource management. As a premium, the book includes extensive references, making it all the more valuable.
