The November issue of Latest Management Research & Practice takes a slightly
different format, as it features an interview with Professor Warren Bennis.
He offers editor Sarah Powell his views on great groups in an increasingly
flexible working environment, on the development and imperatives of leaders,
and on the challenges of today's world.
The interview is supported by 4 articles around the subjects of leadership,
teams, and flexible working.
Warren Bennis, distinguished professor of business administration and
founding chairman of the Leadership Institute at the University of Southern
California, is one of the world's foremost authorities on business culture
and leadership. He has acted as adviser to four US presidents and is the
author of over 2,000 articles and author or editor of 25 books, including
the best selling "Leaders" and "On becoming a leader", both translated into
21 languages. His most recent books, "Organizing genius: the secrets of
creative collaboration" (1997) and "Co-leaders" (1999), focus on his major
interests of leadership, change, great groups and powerful partnerships.
