5.0 out of 5 stars Un guide pour les organisations du 21ième siècle., December 4, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Age of the Network: Organizing Principles for the 21st Century (Paperback)

L'environnement d'affaires des organisations devient de plus en plus instable et complexe. Une organisation qui a une structure flexible transforme les éventualités en opportunités. Ce livre présente un modèle de structure flexible basé sur les réseaux d'équipes. Ces réseaux d'équipes traversent les frontières internes et externes des organisations, font l'équilibre entre la coopération et la compétition, et permettent aux organisations d'obtenir le maximum d'un capital humain qui a souvent été malmené. Les auteurs font le pont entre l'organisation traditionnelle et l'organisation flexible, permettant une transition relativement simple. C'est du bonbon.
