In this groundbreaking, thoroughly researched book, organizational expert Charles Heckscher argues that, in a global network of creation and production, the dominant organizations will be those that master the still-uncodified skills of collaboration—replacing the giants of the past century who thrived on the mastery of bureaucratic systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough there has been much discussion of teamwork and alliances in recent decades, Heckscher argues that we are still a long way from fully understanding how to manage fluid and inconstant collaborations; and that this is an area dominated far more by rhetoric than reality. Using a combination of theory and extensive real-life case studies, Heckscher pushes the boundary of organization design and illustrates how companies are able to create new, effective patterns of interactions, and how they can build a culture and infrastructure necessary to support them. For organizational leaders in search of long-term competitive advantage, \u003ci\u003eThe Collaborative Enterprise\u003c\/i\u003e offers sound research findings and invaluable insights.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47009797013744,"sku":"9780300114645","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780300114645_p0.jpg?v=1763669685","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780300114645","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
