“I have been an independent full-time for only eight months, although I have been in consulting in one form or another for 20 years. If my experience remains as good as this one, being an a-connect IP could be the cornerstone of my career going forward.” —M.E.B., IP since 2005

Speed Read: This Issue's Complimentary Business Book Abstract
"Making Strategy Work: Leading Effective Execution and Change," by Lawrence Hrebiniak
In keeping with the theme of this issue in conjunction with getAbstract we’re offering free access to the abstract of “Making Strategy Work: Leading Effective Execution and Change”, by Lawrence Hrebiniak, Wharton School Publishing, 2005.
The author finds most managers believe that failure to manage change is the primary reason strategic initiatives fail. He contends that the first step toward great execution is to take time at the beginning of an initiative to make managers more aware of the pitfalls ahead.
