Recommendation

Consultants Shane Cragun and Kate Sweetman offer a gem of an idea somewhat surrounded with material that experienced managers have read before. But their filler adds value as well if you’re new to exploring the business and management genre.

Summary

The New “Table Stakes”

Face change while you have the option of exercising control. Responding to change – even through radical reinvention – is just the “table stakes” that start the process. To lead and thrive in the rapidly approaching future, anticipate change. Make it occur. The speed of change in your firm must exceed the rate of external change.
