Empreendedor Corporativo [Corporate Entrepreneur], by Eduardo Bom Angelo, is an obligatory reading for those intending to innovate.

Herbert Steinberg, one of the collaborators, shows that a corporate entrepreneur is someone who identifies opportunities and focuses his/her energies on consistent goals by breaking down conceptual barriers.

 

The book, coordinated by Gustavo and Magdalena Boog, addresses the core subject of the 2003 Conarh (National Congress on Human Resources): the convergence. It proposes to bring walls down for the construction of bridges, and promotes the integrating intelligence.

Herbert Steinberg, author of the chapter Model of corporate governance, stresses that the convergence is the basis of the good governance, for it demands the respect for people (consumers, collaborators, shareholders, and the community).

 

 

The book, whose preface was written by Herbert, deals with the faith in the human potential to lead transformation processes. Through stories, Robert Quinn teaches philosophy and techniques in a practical and simple fashion, pointing out the rocky path to a deep change.

The author addresses the leadership principles exercised by genuinely transforming persons: Jesus Christ, Gandhi and Martin Luther King. He concludes that it is possible to change the world… provided that we change ourselves.
