A propos de cet article

First edition, 1st printing. 316pp. Illustrations by Steve Noble. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in Fine condition (more anon*). "What can Shakespeare teach us about effective leadership? Everything, according to John Whitney, professor of management at Columbia Business School, and Tina Packer, founder/artistic director of Shakespeare & Company. Whether we are dealing with an indecisive Hamlet or a corporate Lear, this innovative approach to management helps us tap the timeless wisdom and profitable genius of the Bard. [] The issues fueling the intricate plots of Shakespeare's 400-year-old plays are the same common yet complex issues that business leaders contend with today. And, as Whitney and Packer so convincingly demonstrate, no one but the Bard himself can penetrate the secrets of leadership with such piercing brilliance. Let him instruct you on the issues that managers face every day: Power. Communication (Shakespeare wrote, 'All the world's a stage,' and no writer has a deeper grasp of the power of performance. Leadership is theater. Learn how to feel comfortable in the leadership role and communicate effectively.). Trust. Decision. Action. Hierarchy. Women in Management. John Whitney and Tina Packer do not simply compare Shakespeare's plays with management techniques, but rather draw on their own wealth of business experience to show us how these essential Shakespearean lessons can be applied to modern-day challenges. POWER PLAYS infuses the world of business with new life--and plenty of drama." [jacket copy] "A pleasurable and instructive book. They give us an engaging testament on practicality and morality in business, richly illuminated by instances from Shakespeare, all expertly dissected."--Fred Andrews, The New York Times. "A masterful job of weaving the timeless lessons of Shakespeare into a refreshing and intellectually stimulating guide for modern business leaders. Whitney and Packer perceptively relate the bard's thought-provoking perspectives on leadership, change and decision making to successfully operating a business in today's fiercely competitive global economy."--Larry Bossidy, Honeywell. "Shakespeare has more important things to say about leadership than any modern book on the subject, and Whitney and Packer bring these insights to management readers in a riveting way."--Warren Bennis, University of Southern California. Near-pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, w/the front endpaper cleanly excised (* Ay, there's the rub, the Fine distinction) due to the bookseller's abashment at Ms. Packer's gracious inscription given at his ill-starred book event (weather, or not, no one showed), wrapped in a bright-as-new jacket.…
