About this ebook

Harlan Cleveland ist einer der letzten großen Denker im Geiste eines Peter Drucker oder Warren Bennis, der die dramatischen Veränderungen in Bereich Leadership und Management hautnah miterlebt hat.

Mit seinen 83 Jahren verfügt er über die Weisheit des Alters, den Vorteil großer Erfahrung und über einen scharfen Verstand.

"Nobody in Charge" besteht aus einer Reihe wichtiger Schriften Clevelands zum Thema Leadership.

In diesem Band überträgt er seine Ansichten zur Unternehmensführung auf heutige Verhältnisse.

Jeder seiner Aufsätze konzentriert sich dabei auf eine ganz besonders faszinierende Erkenntnis rund um das Thema Leadership - teils persönlicher, teils professioneller und teils organisatorischer Art.

Eine moderne Lektüre zu einem aktuellen Thema: Cleveland geht weit über die Management-Tricks von heute (und gestern) hinaus und bietet statt dessen eine neue, erfrischende Definition von Leadership.
