The Individualized Corporation
Description
Christopher A. Bartlett has recently concluded (with Sumantra Ghoshal of the London Business School) a study of changing organizational processes and management roles in twenty diverse companies in various stages of corporate transformation. The research is expected to illuminate the causes and consequences of the massive changes sweeping through corporations worldwide. In particular, Bartlett aims to develop a richer understanding of the organizational models and new management philosophies emerging in the post-transformational organization. The research findings, which have provided the basis for a series of teaching cases and been reported in several multipart articles, are summarized in the book, The Individualized Corporation: A Fundamentally New Approach to Management, published by Harper Business in 1997
