What nugget of managerial wisdom is to be gleaned from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs? What can businesspeople possibly learn from Hansel and Gretel or Little Red Riding Hood?--BOOK JACKET. Youd be surprised - and youll find out in Goldilocks on Management. This refreshingly playful, yet practical storybook (complete with charming original illustrations) takes a fresh, contemporary look at classic fairy tales - revealing, in the process, basic truths underlying many enduring management principles ... as well as misdirected actions that dont lead to happy endings.--BOOK JACKET. Each tale is followed by a business lesson, interpretations that show applications of each lesson, and a real-world business tale that parallels the story.--BOOK JACKET.
