Summary Annotation <b>Praise for <i>Rebuilding the Corporate Genome</i></b><p>"Whether you talk about capability&ndash;driven organizations, modular approaches, or networked economies, the implications of very low costs for transactions, information exchanges, and communications are clear: Business boundaries are dissolving and re&ndash;forming. Aurik, Jonk, and Willen show how innovators are creatively exploiting this trend to their decided advantage."<br />&mdash;Gerard Hoetmer, Senior Vice President, Unilever Bestfoods</p><p>"If you set your strategy at lower levels of the business, you can more effectively compete and grow&ndash;and fend off unexpected rivals. <i>Rebuilding the Corporate Genome</i> shows that once you look through capability lenses, new horizons and new possibilities suddenly come into focus."<br />&mdash;Jan Oosterveld, Member, Group Management Committee, Royal Philips Electronics</p><p>"This book is a compelling and prescient look at the future of the modern corporation. While the &prime;corporate genome project&prime; may be a work in progress, the authors take important steps towards the goal of understanding how corporations really work, and how capability&ndash;based corporations will emerge as the organizations of tomorrow. Read this book carefully, because this is as close as you will get to a key for unlocking innovation and value in your industry."<br />&mdash;Mohanbir Sawhney, McCormick Tribune Professor of Technology and Director, Center for Research in Technology &amp; Innovation, Northwestern University, Kellogg School of Management</p><p>"<i>Rebuilding the Corporate Genome</i> reveals the future before it arrives. The authors masterfully extrapolate from a set of current trends to paint a picture of how businesses and strategies will evolve. The book is a must&ndash;read for anyone charged with charting the direction of a business in these turbulent times."<br />&mdash;Toby E. Stuart, Fred G. Steingraber&ndash;A.T.
