The most successful business book of the last decade, Reengineering the Corporation is the pioneering work on the most important topic in business today: achieving dramatic performance improvements. This book leads readers through the radical redesign of a company''s processes, organization, and culture to achieve a quantum leap in performance. Michael Hammer and James Champy have updated and revised their milestone work for the New Economy they helped to create -- promising to help corporations save hundreds of millions of dollars more, raise their customer satisfaction still higher, and grow ever more nimble in the years to come.

The co-author of the monumental bestseller Reengineering the Corporation continues the reengineering revolution with another national bestseller that has already sold more than 165,000 copies in hardcover Reengineering Management is a brilliant, practical and much needed book on the most powerful management idea of the decade. Reengineering—changing the traditional and outdated organization, processes and culture of a company—is corporate America''s greatest challenge today. In Reengineering Management, Champy examines the far-reaching changes managers must make for themselves and their companies to succeed in an era of unprecedented competition. Through his extensive consulting and research work, he shows how reengineering succeeds only when managers reinvent their own jobs and managerial styles. Otherwise, the ultra-efficient and effective reengineered processes for acquiring and serving customers, filling orders, bringing new concepts to market and other key business activities eventually fall apart. Champy illustrates this new management agenda through first-hand experiences of managers of reengineered operations at Federal Express, Wisconsin Electric, CIGNA Health Care, Hewlett-Packard, AT&T Universal Card Services and other companies. Champy shows how they are mastering the managerial challenges of reengineering, and as a result are making their organizations exciting and competitive. As more and more organizations reengineer, the experiences of these managers will become an insiders'' guide to managerial life in the company of the future. Reengineering Management picks up where Reengineering the Corporation left off—by exploring the managerial implications of the reengineered workplace. As reengineering becomes critical to all organizations, Reengineering Management will be the road map for managerial success in the future. It is, indeed, the manifesto for the next managerial revolution.

"""Reengineering Health Care" gets to the core of transforming our current system by advocating the widespread use of IT, eliminating inefficient practices, and keeping the system focused on a healthy individual and not on a broken process.""--Newt Gingrich, Founder of the Center for Health Transformation, and former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives ""This book is a prescription for streamlining health care.

They will see that reengineering is not overly difficult and can enable them to improve patient care and efficiency.""--Trevor Fetter, President and CEO, Tenet Health Corporation, and Trustee, Federation of American Hospitals ""It isn''t reform that will fix our ailing health care system, its reengineering.

Every clinician, hospital executive, and politician should read this book.""--Bill Crounse, M.D., Senior Director, Worldwide Health, Microsoft Corporation ""Implement health care technology, and you have better health care tools; reengineer with a focus on technology, process, and people, and you have a better health care system.

No one can read this book and not feel a profound call to action.""--H. Stephen Lieber, CAE, President & CEO, HIMSS In their legendary book, "Reengineering the Corporation", Jim Champy and Michael Hammer introduced businesspeople to the enormous power of a revolutionary methodology called "reengineering".

Ce que la division du travail a fait, le Reengineering doit le défaire. Car nos organisations, fondées sur la spécialisation et la répétitivité du travail d''une part, la hiérarchie et le contrôle d''autre part, ne répondent plus aux exigences de notre environnement. Michael Hammer et James Champy proposent donc de réinventer l''entreprise autour de ses processus opérationnels, pour réaliser des gains de performance majeurs : telle est l''essence du Reengineering. En reconfigurant transversalement l''organisation, le Reengineering permet en effet de réaliser des gains spectaculaires sur les coûts, les délais, le service et la qualité, et développe ainsi un nouvel avantage concurrentiel pour l''entreprise. Pour parvenir à ces résultats, il ne suffit pas de raccommoder l''existant. Il faut au contraire revoir fondamentalement la nature du travail, remettre en question les règles établies et en définitive tous les aspects de l''organisation. Comme la plupart des révolutions, le Reengineering a des racines profondes et lointaines. Depuis des années, bien des entreprises ont, en tâtonnant, expérimenté ce cheminement. A partir de leurs propres observations de consultants, Hammer et Champy ont développé et formalisé une démarche puissante de changement. Best-seller mondial et désormais classique de la littérature managériale, cet ouvrage présente les principes, les acteurs et les méthodes du Reengineering.
