Written by Don Barkman, Open-Book Management, Your EZ Intro to OBM, derives from
Don's decade long experience in business education with hourly, professional, and
managerial employees. This experience is coupled with his 25 years of work in
organizational design, team systems, and organizational change. The book sticks to the
essentials in a practical way that has earned Don repeated praise from his readers. Its
unique "Opportunity Matrix" is perhaps the most comprehensive and integrated one
page summary of OBM available. Your EZ Intro to OBM covers:
1. Definition of OBM
2. Synergy of OBM
3. The Birth of OBM
4. Leadership and Philosophy
5. Three Organizational Systems
|
6. Four Key Elements of OBM
7. Opportunity Matrix
8. Advantages
9. Implementation Issues
|
This thorough, yet concise coverage lets you determine how OBM works and
if you should devote more resources to its investigation and implementation. The time and
talent of people is precious. In sixty minutes, the fifty page book lets you know if OBM
is the approach for you.
Your EZ Intro to OBM is definitely not a "how-to" book with explicit
details on establishing OBM. Then again, it's not 250 pages long either. However, it does
summarize other valuable resources you can use if you decide to pursue OBM further.
