The book
What’s inside?
Most of the traditional management methods don’t help you get rid of inertia. This book offers new methods that allow you to stop working harder, take a step back, and change the system. There are a lot of great books out there on developing an effective organization. But what is different about this book is that it is pragmatic and practical.
