Clayton M. Christensen

How Will You Measure Your Life? (Harvard Business Review Classics) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In the spring of 2010, Harvard Business School's graduating class asked HBS professor Clay Christensen to address them-but not on how to apply his principles and thinking to their post-HBS careers. The students wanted to know how to apply his wisdom to their personal lives. He shared with them a set of guidelines that have helped him find meaning in his own life, which led to this now-classic article. Although Christensen's thinking is rooted in his deep religious faith, these are strategies anyone can use.

Since 1922, Harvard Business Review has been a leading source of breakthrough ideas in management practice. The Harvard Business Review Classics series now offers you the opportunity to make these seminal pieces a part of your permanent management library. Each highly readable volume contains a groundbreaking idea that continues to shape best practices and inspire countless managers around the world.
