How to Manage in a Flat World
12 Sep 07

Thanks to the internet and a globalising economy, businesses today are often stretched across different locations and different time zones, and increasingly communicate online rather than face-to-face.

How to Manage in a Flat World gives managers much-needed advice on how to communicate, manage and motivate in organisations that are non-hierarchical.  It also shows them how to operate effectively and build strong teams, whose component members may be based anywhere around the world.

Authors Susan Bloch and Philip Whitely expose insights from in-depth interviews and research with managers and leaders in global businesses.  These insights reveal the successes, struggles and triumphs amid a constant battle for balance within a changing world. 

Reading this book will help managers learn from these experiences how best to collaborate as teams and groups within the flat economy, how to equip themselves as a team leader or team member with fresh ideas on ways of working with their colleagues so as to make the most of the advantages that the networked world can offer.
