information about this book Beyond the Hype: Rediscovering the Essence of
Management
Beyond the Hype offers managers an encouraging message that will allow them to get the most from their ideas by focusing on the fundamentals of management. Reengineering…total quality control…core competence. Countless management gurus have proposed these buzzwords that purport to offer the solution to every organization's problems. Beyond the Hype gets past the verbiage to reveal how things actually get done in organizations. Instead of focusing on panaceas for revitalizing companies, the authors concentrate on the very essence of what managers do: initiate action. Rather than prescribe a specific managerial framework, they propose a new way of thinking that emphasizes the judgment of the individual manager in determining what to do. There are no magic wands, no silver bullets. The authors maintain that good management comes from selecting appropriate actions, communicating them through effective and inspiring rhetoric, i.e. getting a buy-in, and ensuring that they are accomplished.

Organizations A book to be read and reread by managers and persons interested in building successful business organizations. This engrossing discussion is the reprint of the 1995 book that in 1998 The Wall Street Journal called one of the best all-time books on leadership.

This new way to look at the internal structures of business has generated a great deal of interest and the phrase "webs of inclusion" has become part of the organizational lexicon. This clearly written book describes the web in operation and shows how the web can be weaved. More
