Overview

"In this Springer Brief, the author introduces how Chinese firms are successfully using their own variants of the ""Silicon Valley Approach"" to management. The author begins the discussion by deliberating on the extent to which management models need to be re-invented. A fundamentally new approach is then introduced, which already exists and is proving itself in practice at some of Silicon Valley's most dynamic firms. The author finds that the Chinese management models, in comparison, may be even more advanced. If true, this could have profound implications for managers everywhere. The author acknowledges that no management model fails (or succeeds) every time. Skeptics can point to big bureaucratic firms that continue to prosper, as well as to radical innovators that have gone under. This book brings to light the need that has emerged for a model that will give companies their best chances of thriving amid the VUCA whirlwind. A combination of evidence and informed opinion indicates the old management model has run its course."

With over twenty years of experience as a speaker, writer, and performer, Sheri Saginor brings to her work a true passion for the spoken word. She has worked in a wide variety of industries, including high-tech, education, and music. But the common thread that connects them all is using her voice to communicate with others. As a former professional singer, she has a keen understanding of the ""musicality"" of great audiobook narration. One of her greatest strengths is creating a sense of intimacy and energy that draws audiences in and keeps them listening. She loves narrating fiction, but she specializes in nonfiction genres, including business, self-development, and memoir. When she's not in the recording booth, she enjoys hiking up mountains, running half-marathons, and belting out old Linda Ronstadt and Taylor Swift tunes while playing her guitar."
