How Gerstner, by infusing a sense of urgency into a company that had begun to equate aggressiveness with dishonor, led Big Blue from an $8 billion loss in 1993 to a $3 billion profit in 1994. Saving Big Blue reveals the hidden secrets of the world's biggest computer maker. Its chapters present numerous leadership secrets and success maxims, then look inside each to reveal management insights that can be applied to situations of any size or type."--BOOK JACKET.
