Organizing for competitive advantage and profit How can businesses
best tap diverse capabilities to generate new ideas, manufacture
products, and properly execute strategy? In this groundbreaking,
thoroughly researched book, organizational expert Charles Heckscher
argues that, in a global network of creation and production, the
dominant organizations will be those that master the
still-uncodified skills of collaboration-replacing the giants of
the past century who thrived on the mastery of bureaucratic
systems. Though there has been much discussion of teamwork and
alliances in recent decades, Heckscher argues that we are still a
long way from fully understanding how to manage fluid and
inconstant collaborations; and that this is an area dominated far
more by rhetoric than reality. Using a combination of theory and
extensive real-life case studies, Heckscher pushes the boundary of
organization design and illustrates how companies are able to
create new, effective patterns of interactions, and how they can
build a culture and infrastructure necessary to support them. For
organizational leaders in search of long-term competitive
advantage, The Collaborative Enterprise offers sound research
findings and invaluable insights.
