5.0 out of 5 stars A brillant work which should be read by all OEM executives, July 16, 1998
This review is from: Intelligent Enterprise: A Knowledge and Service Based Paradigm for Industry (Hardcover)
Quinn's tome intellectually addresses the macro-economic trend of moving manufacturing, especially business-to-business durable goods, to a strategic enterprise model which instead of selling goods, will sell services that imbed the product that they manufacture. The intensity of Quinn's work is formidable! It has the same "feel" of a Peter Drucker work. ...which is a compliment to any author. This is not light reading....but it is worth every minute of effort

5.0 out of 5 stars Must Reading to Understand the Role of Services in Today's Economy, October 3, 2009

This review is from: Intelligent Enterprise: A Knowledge and Service Based Paradigm for Industry (Hardcover)
Quinn is one of the greats in the field of strategy, so I decided to go back and read this, one of his major works. This book is definitely worthwhile, especially is addressing many of the assumptions that many hold about services. If you still think of manufacturing as "real" jobs and services as flipping burgers, you need to read this book.

My only regret it that I did not read it when it first came out.
