The Courage to Act

Book Abstract by: getAbstract    

Original Author: Merom Klein and Rod Napier
Only a brave pair of authors would try to tackle a topic as all-encompassing as the need for courage in the modern business
world, but that is exactly what Drs. Merom Klein and Rod Napier have set out to do. Do they succeed? Not entirely. While their diagnosis of the organizational ills plaguing today’s companies is spot-on, their prescriptions are generic, involving "creating a safe environment," "building pride" and "keeping it fun." Despite the obviousness of some of the sound advice in the later chapters, the book shines in its first 70 pages, in which the doctors present an original, enlightening analysis of how organizational changes have altered the roles and responsibilities of mid-level workers. Based on this fresh perspective, getAbstract.com thinks that all readers could use a little Courage.
