Since the invention of management over a century ago, it has gradually become detached from the day-to-day operation of the organization and from delivering value to customers. Conventional wisdom is that managers set targets and then create systems to monitor, measure and control the execution of these targets. These systems include budgets, performance management, incentives and appraisals, which are used to exercise control and ensure that targets are met. Simple, obvious and wrong! We need a change in management thinking. Dragon slaying explains. Can you afford to ignore it? 'This book challenges leaders to think about the way they manage.
