| A non-critical Sample
This book as partly about how generation X
is impacting the business world. Perhaps, having felt employers
were no longer to be trusted, they are making their own rules.
Here are some words from the book cover:
"Karl Marx was right. The workers do control
the most critical means of production; 1.3 kilograms of brain holds
the key to all our futures."
"Successful companies are different from the
competition, and the difference comes from the way people think,
rather than what companies make. In the new world, it's talent that
makes capital dance. Business as usual is uninspired and that's
no longer good enough; talent doesn't want to work there; customers
don't want to buy there."
The Authors:
Jonas Ridderstrale & Kjell Nordstrom are based at the Stockholm
School of Economics
Their Book: Funky Business is from Bookhouse
Publishing AB2000
ISBN 0 273 64591 9
This book is not for sale on this site but needed

"In these times we need FUNKY BUSINESS"
Funky Times
The new world is different. Forget the old world order. Forget
what you knew yesterday.
Forces of Funk
Technology, institutions and values are being subverted and overturned.
They are the triad, the inter-linked drivers of change, transforming
each other creating a global village of turbulence, tribes and new
opportunities.
We are deregulating life for ourselves and
our children. The reality of our times is that we are all condemned
to freedom- The freedom to choose.
Funky Inc.
The corporate complacency of yesterday has given way to insecurity
and fear. Organizations will be different.
Funky U
Amid the maelstrom of change, people are seeking out understanding,
meaning, development, skills and insight. So how should you lead
others and how can you lead your own life?
Feeling Funky
What do you need to do today and tomorrow to survive and thrive
in the new world? Alberto Alessi is already doing it. So too are
Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, and Jorma Ollila. They are all exploiting
the last taboo.
