Management "fads" abound in the 20th-century boardroom, often proving disastrous for organizations and lucrative for consultants. This text explodes the myths of "downsizing" and "reengineering", choosing instead to take the power away from the next trend and place it back within the company, focusing on perspective, good judgement, the will to make decisions and the courage to manage. Written in "soundbite" form, it is designed for those who attend the management meetings as well as those who call them.
