Book excerpt: Tom Peter's Book of the Year! 'Book of the Year: This year's honors go to Charles Savage for Fifth Generation Management. Savage joins a select few ... who exquisitely explain tomorrow's bizarre organizational arrangements, where hierarchies are levelled and the imagery of networks and spider webs butts out yesterday's pyramids.' Tom Peters, Co-author of In Search Of Excellence Explore the shift from steep top-down management to human networking, as companies with second-generation management attempt to absorb fourth- and fifth-generation technologies, like computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM) and computer-integrated enterprises (CIE). This provocative yet readable book looks into the assumptions, values, and ways of relating in the workplace that must change as companies move beyond the 'technology wall' into the future.
