Harvard Business Review - it's all about collaboration!

The latest edition of the Harvard Business Review (July-August 2011) is in the library and the theme is about collaboration.  Articles range from "Are you a collaborative leader" to "Building a collaborative organization" which should be very interesting to those in management.

For those of you in marketing, there is also an article on "What is your social media strategy" that outlines four ways companies are using technology to form connections as well as an article on the Group phenomenon and understanding more about this latest online discounting approach.

Finally, a great read on how the CEO of Bayer Corporation created a lean growth machine to a case study of how management has to decide who has to be let go in a downsizing initiative when all of his employees have the same performance review scores.

Indeed - this issue, as always, contains alot of material for those in management, marketing, HR, etc. in our journal/magazine section - come enjoy!
