✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Does your company aspire to be its industry leader? The author hopes so, because to be world class, a company must be a leader.

However, many companies still seem content to follow the lead of others when it comes to making key organizational decisions. And one of the most damaging follower afflictions, the author argues, is a disease he calls “best practicism.”
