The Organization of the Future presents the latest and best thinking of acclaimed visionaries and practitioners who ponder the future of human enterprise everywhere - in government, business, and community. Supported by two giants - Peter Drucker opens the book and Charles Handy closes it - the authors within provide their own perspectives on tomorrow, in thoughtful, to-the-point chapters. Together they underscore where, when, and how organizations and their leaders must. Evolve, not only to survive but also to prosper.
