Rosabeth Moss Kanter on the Frontiers of Management

Rating:
Summary: drivel
Review: I apologize for being trite, but this book is drivel. Ms Kanter is not on the frontier, but rather at the tail end, making random observations as they go past.

Summary: A Great Introduction
Review: Rosabeth Moss Kanter has written over 16 books and hundreds of articles and shorter pieces. As a result, the body of her work has become almost impossible to appreciate fully, and even to get a sense of her range requires more time than most of us can spare. This is a shame, because her work, more than that of any other social scientist, has continued to build and to grow on her previous work, resulting in a powerful and coherent overall framework. This book, RMK on the Frontiers of Management, is the best possible introduction to her work and its scope. The information in its longer essays is as current and valuable as ever, because her work rarely becomes dated, and the short pieces offer sparkling insights into a wide range of organizational and business issues. I strongly recommend it to everyone with an interest or stake in modern organizations.
