From the Inside Flap
The Boundaryless Organization reveals how leaders can use four powerful "levers" to foster a shift from "command and control" methods to those that rely more on creating shared mind-sets, stretch goals, and empowered colleagues, including:
- Information-encouraging greater access to information across all boundaries
- Authority-giving people at different levels the power to make decisions
- Competence-helping people develop the skills they need to succeed
- Rewards-giving people the incentives to achieve shared organizational goals
