Reengineering Management: The Mandate for New Leadership

Abstract

More than two years after the publication of Reengineering the Corporation, thousands of companies large and small have undertaken the mission of reengineering, sparking a transformation in literally millions of working lives. Yet as the reengineering revolution spreads throughout the world economy, a now-familiar pattern seems to have emerged. Too often, reengineering stops at the upper echelons of corporations, and managerial levels remain unchanged or resistant to the reengineering process. As a consequence, the task of reengineering is stopped in its tracks, and the anticipated benefits are never achieved.
