The age of heretics
A History of the Radical Thinkers Who Reinvented Corporate Management
Book • 1988
In this book, Art Kleiner explores the nature of effective leadership in times of change by examining the roles of 'heretics'—visionary individuals who create change in large-scale companies.
The book delves into the history of human resource management, linking ideas from various fields and tracing the evolution of corporate change back almost 2,000 years.
It focuses on figures such as those involved with the National Training Laboratories, Charles Krone at Procter & Gamble, and Lyman Ketchum and Ed Dulworth at General Foods.
Kleiner argues that corporations exist to provide venues for people to expand their capabilities and try new things on a large scale, thereby changing the world.
