The Evolving Corporation

"The corporation model of organizations is in terminal decline, says Cook, and is being displaced by what he calls "syntagma," a body of persons that actually functions as the corporate organization. Cook offers an analysis of the critical aspects of the corporation as it exists today and draws heavily upon contemporary management theories and practices. He maintains that the new, emerging organization will be characterized by common values, mutual purpose, excess capacity, and creative action."--BOOK JACKET.
