5.0 out of 5 stars It is a shake-down to tradition!, 30 Oct 1998
By A Customer
After going thru all the series of Michael's "state-of-the-art" books, I also applied some ideas and approaches while doing consulting work with my clients. However, it is not a happy ending for every case I consulted with in the real world. But to myself, I definitly believe in what Michael promoted all about - process thinking, process organizing - without any doubt. The "thing" we deliver to the customer, even we can say the reason why a comapny can exist is VALUE, not product, technology, or so-called "service". I know it's hard to define what VALUE means, but what I do believe is to delight the customers may represent they feel the value! By the way, Chapter 7 in the book - A Football Team is my favorite part, because I also use "Basketball team" to motivate my staff! And believe me, it does WORK!

4.0 out of 5 stars Almost a homer, just a long double off the top of the wall, 9 Mar 1999
By A Customer
After the first nine chapters, I thought this book was better than the original, Reengineering the Corporation. But the second half of the book wanders off into repetition, ambiguity and irrelevance. Oh well, it is still worth the cost just to read the first half of this sequel, because it adds depth to the original book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A must read if you're intent on being an up-to-date manager, 20 Jan 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Beyond RE-Engineering: How the RE-Engineering Revolution is Reshaping Our World and Our Lives (Hardcover)
Michael Hammer's newest book, Beyond Reengineering, is a work in progress because it provides observations of a revolution that's only just begun. The "natural aristocracy" among leaders--as Thomas Jefferson would call them--are moving already from a procedure-based culture to a process-based culture; from micro to macro; from a microscopic view to a telescopic view. Procedure-based task analysis is gone. Process-related performance technology has replaced it. A sequel to his earlier book, Beyond Reengineering calls for rethinking of our most basic assumptions: "the kinds of work that people do, the jobs they hold, the skills they need, the careers they follow, the roles managers play, the principles of strategy that enterprises follow." The shift has carried Hammer with it, moving (as do all revolutionary movements) from the revolution of ideals, in which his key word was "radical," to the organized reworking of the underpining society, in which the key word is "process." Michael Hammer is not prescriptive but descriptive, showing where we're headed and what we're doing to get there.
