Wallmark seminar: Fit to compete – How to build a High commitment and High performing organization

with Michael Beer, Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business School

About the seminar

What are the challenges faced by organizations trying to combine high commitment to social value with high financial performance? Professor Beer argues that the main hurdle for organizations is the absence of a core management process that enables them to have open and honest conversations about what stands in the way of their success. In this seminar, he will share thoughts from his forthcoming book – “Fit to compete – How to build a high commitment and high performing organization”.

Professor Michael Beer is an esteemed researcher and management expert. He has for many years worked to understand and support organizations with the ambition to combine high commitment to social value with high financial performance. He is well known for his work on organization effectiveness, organizational change, high commitment, high performance organizations, leadership, as well as human resource management.
