Summary

Over the last twenty-five years, an enormous change has occurred in the landscape of business?the rise and decline of the industrial corporation. Changing Fortunes examines this evolution and looks ahead to what it means for owners, managers, employees and the public. This book portrays the dramatic shifts in strategy that America?s biggest companies (i.e. GE, IBM) underwent in moving from an industrial to a postindustrial economy.
