One of the world's preeminent business thinkers and co-author of the bestseller, Competing for the Future, Gary Hamel helped set the management agenda for the 1990's. He now brings us into the twenty-first century with the new and updated 2nd edition of Leading the Revolution, which was on The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Business Week bestseller lists. With updated examples and all-new chapters, this revised edition lays out an innovative action plan for becoming --- and staying - an industry revolutionary. By drawing on the success of "gray haired revolutionaries" like Charles Schwab, Virgin, and GE Capital - companies who are always thinking ahead of the game and growing in new directions - and profiling individuals such as Ken Kutaragi, one of the pioneers of Sony Playstation, Hamel explains how companies can continue to grow, innovate, and achieve success, even in a chaotic world market. With insight culled from years of experience, Hamel: - Identifies the key design criteria for building companies that are activist-friendly and revolution-ready - Shows how to avoid becoming "one-vision wonders" - Demonstrates how to harness the imagination of every employee - Explains how to develop new financial measures that focus on creating new wealth
