Publisher: Portfolio Hardcover
Description: Two of Inc. magazine`s hugely popular columnists show how small-business people can deal with all kinds of tricky situations.

He calls it `the knack,` and it has made all the difference to the eight successful start-ups of his career. Brodsky explores this mind-set every month in Inc. magazine, in the hugely popular column he co-writes with journalist and author Bo Burlingham (best known for his acclaimed book `Small Giants`).

This meant introducing measurement systems, benchmarking methodologies and eliminating waste in many forms through involvement and empowerment.

The arrival of the interest in the learning organization allowed him to integrate everything he had laboured over into a coherent whole. When the knowledge revolution began to grow, he was convinced that what he had been doing had been part of that revolution. But one day, after three years of hard work across the corporation`s plants around the world, he was allowed a glimpse of the real business knowledge that drove the organization. And to his initial sense of disbelief, this `real` knowledge had nothing to do with efficiency, utilization or the involvement of large numbers of people…. [detailed...]

To begin with, the main dynamics of change that characterize today`s demand for management consulting is outlined, and is it suggested that firms are becoming increasingly aware of the real cognitive (rather than only the economic) value generation potential that can be activated through the consulting relationship. Also, the possible pathways for evolutionary transformation of consulting practices, models and roles that consulting firms could follow if they want to take advantage of the important changes that are taking place, are looked at. Next, a definition of management consulting is proposed, which aims to identify the distinctive ontological (real, essential and relatively stable) features of this particular service and emphasizes the mainly cognitive nature of its… [detailed...]
