Bureaucracy was—150 years ago—a brilliant innovation.  But, because of the rapid change and increasing complexity in today's global economy, it just isn't as effective as it used to be.  There's a lot of talk about using new business models.  In practice, however, there is lot more talking about the new models than actually walking the talk by truly changing business practices.  More than 90% of businesses today are bureaucracies and are structured using a factory model.  In this engaging seminar, participants learn how to change their business models—not because they are exhorted or bullied—but because they understand and can see for themselves why, in differing environments—some tools and situations work more effectively than others.
