Deset tajemství jednoho z největších králů světového obratu. Tato kniha se snaží podávat objektivní pohled na obchodní praxi a myšlení některých podnikových velikánů. Co je odlišuje? V čem jsou dobří? Jak uvidíte, tyto lekce nejsou žádnou nedostupnou vědou. Manažerství je spíše věda do kapsy. Teorie je pro ty, kteří na ni mají čas. Nejlepší nápady si přisvojujte, protože jediná, všezahrnující idea neexistuje.
Kniha nepřináší žádná "rychlá" řešení, žádné "osvědčené" recepty a "zázračné" léky na všechny neduhy manažerské praxe. Jsou-li ovšem klíčové koncepce, o nichž hovoří, správně pochopeny a ve správný čas a ve vhodném prostředí dovedně aplikovány, mohou překlenout onu příslovečnou propast mezi teorií a praxí.
Tyto zásadní myšlenkové koncepce jsou v knize přehledně uspořádány do devíti základních tematických okruhů:
* Nový svět managementu
* Nový svět organizací
* Tvorba a realizace strategie
* Nové způsoby řízení lidí
* Revoluce jakosti
* Nové pojetí marketingu
* Vedení lidí a vůdčí schopnosti
* Učení a další vzdělávání
* Globální management
