The battlefield of the past is an opportunity for the future
commander, the future manager to reflect. The books rationale for
translating military concepts into management speak is the authors
impression in the classroom that managers in commercial
organisations tend to follow 'outdated' models of management,
without reflecting on a military science that is believed to
provide thought leadership. The case study of the Fall of France in
1940 is a contest between two archetypes of organisational
resilience, with one prevailing over the other. The resulting
insights shaped military science; concepts such as Auftragstaktik
have found its way into doctrinal thinking of modern armies as well
as framed contemporary management literature. This book provides a
compelling analysis of the monumental events in May 1940, and
provides rudimentary answers from a military and management
perspective, true to the premise of history. The Art of
Organisational Resilience is a highly distinctive and readable book
that explores the strategy, operations and tactics of modern
business and the role of resilience in sustaining business in
increasingly complex, often fast-changing and adverse conditions.
