Mission Possible: Becoming a World-Class Organization While There's Still Time

by Ken Blanchard and Terry Waghorn
 

Book Description
Winning Business Strategies for the 21st Century Is it possible for managers to improve your present organization while at the same time innovating building for the future? It is now with the new Mission Possible. Best-Selling author Ken Blanchard and Terry Waghorn take the latest growth strategies and organizational change theories out of the ivory tower think-tanks and put them right into your hands. Their groundbreaking Five Point Plan shows you exactly how to get maximum results from your employees each and every day... achieve short-term organizational objectives... effectively plan for the future without sacrificing current goals... identify and motivate doers and planners... organize teams with winning attitudes... and more. It's your blueprint for taking an active role in building your organization into a world class operation and ensuring continued success through the 21st century.

This wasn't one of Blanchard's best sellers - but maybe that's because it doesn't offer a "one minute" solution.  On the other hand, it offers a clear perspective for evolutionary improvement ... while at the same time fomenting the revolutions that will create the next generation of success.  Cites many current business classics.  A handy guide for the journeyman leader.
