logo_bnet_88×107-11.gifToday on Sterling Performance, our management blog from BNET UK, you’ll want to check out Joanna Higgins’ interview with management guru Jim Champy, who has a new book out, called ‘Outsmart.’

The book is based entirely on devil-in-the-details-type case studies — a refreshing break from abstract theory. As Champy explains: “I didn’t want to write just another management book. There’s very little that is new in management to write.” (You heard it here first, folks.) Higgins, our London-based senior editor at BNET UK, talks to the co-author of the seminal ‘Re-Engineering the Corporation’ about why downsizing “just isn’t enough anymore.”  Today’s piece is the second of a three-part interview this week. Enjoy.
