Book excerpt: In Business Wisdom of the Electronic Elite, James presents a unique and instructive portrait of the best management methods of the most innovative leaders in industry today, including Bill Gates (Microsoft), William Campbell (Intuit), Michael Dell (Dell Computer) Ed McCracken (Silicon Graphics), Scott McNealy (Sun Microsystems), Carol Bartz (Autodesk), Eckhard Pfeiffer (Compaq), and Lewis Platt (Hewlett-Packard). The Electronic Elite have discovered and defined new rules for managing in the information age. They have built organizations in which employees are loyal and wildly productive, while providing aggressive career growth and financial reward. These energetic leaders have created a management style very different from the posturing, paranoid, and controlling behavior that is the norm in more traditional corporations. Through entrepreneurial drive, and appropriate use of technology, the Electronic Elite inspire corporate cultures that are powerhouses of flexibility and creativity.
