Why you should read Culture.com
Culture.com is at its best when it describes the effect that the Internet revolution is having on the corporate cultures of modern business. Of special merit are the book’s lists of suggestions that managers and human resource executives can follow in attempting to develop a new culture that adequately addresses the changes and strains brought on by the rise of the virtual revolution. Also intriguing is the book’s analysis of the dangerous transition period in which companies shift from old cultures to dot-com cultures. While the book is less effective in its look at the more general trends of technology, business and leadership, getAbstract.com nevertheless recommends it for its innovative take on virtual corporate culture.
