Corporate Aikido: Unleash The Potential Within Your Company To Neutralize Competition And Seize Growth

From Sun Tzu's Art of War to Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching, the classics of Eastern thought have been a popular influence on current management and leadership strategy around the world. Now, Robert Pino presents managers and executives with a powerful strategy for thinking about competition--Aikido--a martial art that focuses on working in harmony to resolve conflicts and neutralize opponents. Aikido managers are not solely driven by competition, but focus instead on taking over the power and energy of their opponent--to render the competitor's strength obsolete. It is also a method for attaining mental and physical balance--in business, for instance, the organization itself can be seen as the physical component, and the company's strategy and culture as the mental. If these two components are balanced, the company can achieve an unbeatable intrinsic strength.
