Book Pic: Flight of the Buffalo

Flight of the Buffalo, by James Belasco and Ralph C. Stayer, is a great read for anyone who wants to think about employees and leadership in a different way. The authors describe how to change the old paradigm, the “lead buffalo and the herd” and move to a new kind of organization. They discuss employees’ need for more responsibility and ways to empower them. The authors also describe how hardworking, top-down managers can get outmaneuvered in today’s marketplace.

Tim Peters writes, “These are crazy times in the world’s marketplace. They call for bold efforts on the part of business and political leads. No business leader has been more bold and few have been more successful than Ralph Stayer.”
