[Full Title] Leading the Revolution: How to Thrive in Turbulent Times by Making Innovation a Way of Life
It is said that the few worthy ones among the ocean of perpetually-churned-out business books are those which put forward an idea which [1] few have hitherto conceived, and [2] is both practicable and contributes significantly to the profits of the corporation (not just the management guru's). This fails on both counts; it was, in fact, published just as the "revolution" came to an abrupt end.
Nonetheless, it is well-written in the sense that the basic idea is phrased in easy-to-grasp-and-easy-to-remember form, re-explained from every conceivable angle, and provides quotable catchphrases. Indeed, anyone in search of the next big management idea, whether a consultant or an executive, is certain to finish reading the book, feeling that he has finally found it.
