Power Plays: Shakespeare's Lessons in Leadership and ManagementSimon & Schuster, 2000 - 316 sivua How do you motivate people to give their all for the cause? Ask Henry V at Agincourt. Have you passed over someone who wanted to be promoted? Beware of the Iago syndrome. Facing a hostile audience? Take a cue from Mark Anthony. How do you fire someone? Learn the good & the bad from Henry IV. The issues fueling the intricate plots of Shakespeare's 400-year-old plays are the same issues with which business leaders contend today. & as John Whitney & Tina Packer demonstrate so convincingly & comprehensively, no one but the beloved Bard could ever penetrate the secrets of leadership with such piercing brilliance & invaluable instruction. For the benefit of corporate players at every level, this ingenious book holds up Shakespeare's powerful mirror to consider such perennial business themes as power, trust, communication, & decisiveness. Best of all, the authors drive the messages home with real-world models of modern-day success & failure--featuring such monarchs (both reigning & deposed) as GE's Jack Welch, AT&T's Robert Allen, & Apple's John Scully. Eloquent & consistently surprising, Power Plays injects the business literature with new life--and plenty of drama. |
