Customer Review: There have been a lot of books published on what it takes to "execute" strategy or to "implement" organizational change since Pfeffer & Sutton first published this book in 1999.

The first book was a little dry and academic (and intended to be), but this book is your typical business book, which makes it easy to read. Wenger is teaming up with Richard... more info
Customer Review: This book is the basis for so much that we already know - or should know. Re-reading it this year (2008) after so long was a shock to my senses.
