Summary |
"Each of the 15 chapters of Above the Clouds analyses a trend in detail and includes perspectives from business academia and comments from the European public. There are disagreements, but also a surprising amount of convergence on issues such as leadership, outsourcing global risk, women, age, spirituality, stress and technology." "Rather than trying to offer certainty, the book aims to equip people and organisations with the awareness and adaptability they will need to meet tomorrow's challenges to the way we work. It is fascinating reading for anyone interested in how the big issues of work are likely to impact on us all."--Jacket. |
