2003.
Max
De Pree, former CEO of Herman Miller and author
of two bestselling books that look at business
in a decidedly nontraditional manner, now turns
his attention to nonprofits and the way they
bring out the best in people. Leading Without
Power: Finding Hope in Serving Community addresses
the possibility of managing through inspiration
rather than domination by drawing a distinction
between "organizations" and "movements."
While some may argue that his theories are a
bit too touchy-feely, De Pree's successful corporate
background proves that there is more to his
ideas than mere rhetorical bombast.
