Gary Hamel Knihy

Nejnovější kniha jednoho z nejvýznamnějších světových myslitelů a poradců v oboru managementu dokládá, že hlavním zdrojem dlouhodobého podnikatelského úspěchu mohou být dnes i napříště jen inovace managementu – nové způsoby mobilizování lidského potenciálu, alokování zdrojů a tvorby strategií. Protože většina firem organizovaný proces radikálních inovací managementu postrádá, Hamel – s využitím případových studií inovačních přístupů některých pozoruhodně úspěšných firem (W. L. Gore & Associates, Best Buy, Whole Foods Market, Google, IBM, Rite-Solutions, Procter & Gamble, Whirlpool, GE, Toyota, Visa atd.) – ukazuje, jak se zbavit starých, tradičních dogmat a jak změnit vaši firmu v inovátora managementu, a zajistit jí tak dlouhodobou prosperitu.

Jak zvítězit ve světě nekonečné změny, zuřivé konkurence a nikdy nekončící inovace. Poslední kniha Garyho Hamela, podle mnohých jednoho z nejuznávanějších myslitelů managementu a fungování firem. Pokud se vám líbila Svoboda v práci, tato kniha vás nejspíš dostane. Nás nadchla - např. Snídaně o Apple či o hodnotách. Přináší oči otevírající souvislosti, mistrně vysvětluje podstatu problémů dnešních firem, popisuje, jak se mění dnešní svět, co to znamená pro každou firmu a každého pracujícího a předně ukazuje, na co se zaměřit, v případě že chce firma přežít v hyper-konkurenčním 21.století. Téma této knihy se stane podle všeho již brzy velmi palčivým i v naší části světa zatím stavějícím do velké míry na montážním průmyslu. Najdete zde i další konkrétní příklady fungování firem, které se organizují jinak než zaběhlým, konvečním zůsobem (např. Bank of New Zealand, Morning Star, Apple nebo W. L. Gore) vč. několika zajímavých návodů na to, jak se svobodou ve firmě začít.

What fuels long-term business success? Not operational excellence, technology breakthroughs, or new business models, but management innovation—new ways of mobilizing talent, allocating resources, and formulating strategies. Through history, management innovation has enabled companies to cross new performance thresholds and build enduring advantages.In The Future of Management , Gary Hamel argues that organizations need management innovation now more than ever. Why? The management paradigm of the last century—centered on control and efficiency—no longer suffices in a world where adaptability and creativity drive business success. To thrive in the future, companies must reinvent management.Hamel explains how to turn your company into a serial management innovator, revealing:The make-or-break challenges that will determine competitive success in an age of relentless, head-snapping change.The toxic effects of traditional management beliefs.The unconventional management practices generating breakthrough results in “modern management pioneers.”The radical principles that will need to become part of every company’s “management DNA.”The steps your company can take now to build your “management advantage.”Practical and profound, The Future of Management features examples from Google, W.L. Gore, Whole Foods, IBM, Samsung, Best Buy, and other blue-ribbon management innovators.

Challenging the belief that marketplace competitiveness is dependent on financial resources and old-world business practices, the authors provide an executive's model for today's goals

Based on open source principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration, "open management" challenges conventional business ideas about what companies are, how they run, and how they make money. This book provides the blueprint for putting it into practice in your own firm. He covers challenges that have been missing from the conversation to date, among them: how to scale engagement; how to have healthy debates that net progress; and how to attract and keep the "Social Generation" of workers. Through a mix of vibrant stories, candid lessons, and tested processes, Whitehurst shows how Red Hat has blown the traditional operating model to pieces by emerging out of a pure bottom up culture and learning how to execute it at scale. And he explains what other companies are, and need to be doing to bring this open style into all facets of the organization.

Organizations today are failing, characterized by sluggishness, resistance to change, and emotional detachment. In contrast, individuals are adaptable, creative, and passionate. This disconnect stems from bureaucracy—a top-down, rule-bound management structure that reduces people to mere "resources." Originating in the 19th century to standardize human behavior, bureaucracy is dehumanizing and has resulted in only 13 percent of employees globally being fully engaged in their work. The rest are physically present but lack enthusiasm, contributing to an estimated $9 trillion loss in global economic output each year. Despite trends toward flatter organizations, bureaucracy continues to expand. In this compelling work, Gary Hamel and Michele Zanini provide a blueprint for creating organizations that prioritize human potential over bureaucratic constraints. They emphasize the importance of understanding the hidden costs of "bureausclerosis," eliminating toxic bureaucratic beliefs, and learning from organizations that have successfully removed bureaucracy. Key strategies include uprooting bureaucratic structures without causing chaos, overcoming resistance to change, and fostering a culture where leadership is not tied to rank. The ultimate aim is to cultivate organizations infused with entrepreneurial spirit, where innovation thrives and everyone acts like an owner. This book is both a manifesto and a manual, filled with insights a

This is not a book about one thing. It's not a 250-page dissertation on leadership, teams or motivation. Instead, it's an agenda for building organizations that can flourish in a world of diminished hopes, relentless change and ferocious competition. This is not a book about doing better.

Provides an action plan for any company or individual intent on becoming and staying an industry revolutionary. This book argues that the fundamental challenge companies face is reinventing themselves and their industries, not just in times of crisis - but continually.
