Ourentire civilization is going through an immense change, the likes of which has not been seen since the dawn of the Modern Age five hundred years ago.

Jumping the Curve offers perspective and guidance for doing business atthis unique moment in time. The book reveals the critical determinants of management success as we move into a new epoch that we can'tyetfully see or understand.
Internationally known management consultants Nicholas Imparato and Oren Harari connect the big picture of our changing civilization with the specific practical actions managers have to take to produce results today. All organizations are faced with the same challenge: the need to "jump the curve" to make significant, discontinuous leaps in theirthinking, whether about product, technology, or management style. The alternative—to f o I low c u rre nt p ra cti c es a II th e way to their inevitable decline—is unacceptable. The authors show us it is also unnecessary.
Drawing on numerous personal interviews with innovative leaders around the world, as well as research and first-hand observation, Imparato and Harari identify the fourstrategic imperatives— innovation, intelligence, coherence, and responsibility—thatwill enable companiesto successfully jump the curve and thrive in the emerging epoch. And they show how cutting-edge companies and leaders are translating these imperatives into action. Vissza
