The Boundaryless Organization: Breaking the Chains of Organizational Structure

In 1995 The Boundaryless Organization showed companies how to sweep away the artificial obstacles - such as hierarchy, turf, and geography - that get in the way of outstanding business performance. Now, in this completely revised edition of their groundbreaking work, management experts Ron Ashkenas, Dave Ulrich, Todd Jick, and Steve Kerr offer an up-to-date version of their comprehensive guide to help any organization go boundaryless - and become a company with the ability to quickly, proactively, and creatively adjust to changes in the environment. With new examples, a new commentary on the developments of the last five years, and illuminating first-hand accounts from pioneering senior executives, the authors once again show why boundaryless is a prerequisite for any organization trying to succeed in the economy of the twenty-first century.
