I have been hammering through these books here lately it seems. Cool!
I just finished listening to the following Audiobook.
“The Future of Management” by Gary Hamel
2007 – Harvard Business School Press – ISBN: 978-1422102503
I would rate this book as excellent. 12.3 / 14.0 Stars.
It is very informative, highly encouraging, and really strikes a cord with my innermost beliefs on how companies… created BY humans FOR humans… should be run. The examples / anecdotes were especially helpful and greatly appreciated. This book really got me jazzed up in what a company could be and that I could be the one to do it. Bonus!
The only real complaint I could muster up was the underlying feeling that the plans / ideals presented were a bit too Utopian, but I am sure that is due to the corporate bureaucracy I have witnessed all my life. There were also several instances of obvious dub over, but that didn’t but me too much.
The following are my personal notes from this book. I took a lot of notes! I was jazzed! Enjoy!
