wealth of CEO wisdom about how companies today can successfully
manage change in response to rapidly changing business conditions.

globalization, the disruptive influence of new technologies,
growing electronic connectivity among far flung financial markets,
and the rise of e-business among others -- and assesses the short
and long-term significance of these trends for the long-term
viability of companies in all industries. Among the "change makers"
profiled in this book: Lord Colin Marshall, Chairman of British
Airways; Robert Bauman, former CEO of SmithKline Beecham; Bill
Henderson, U.S. Postmaster General; Jane Garvey, Administrator of
