The fall of the alphas : the new beta way to connect, collaborate, influence--and lead
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The Fall of the Alphas explores the sweeping changes in the corporate and social cultures of today's most successful organizations. Utilizing years of experience advising companies of all sizes, from hypergrowth start-ups to Fortune 500 company-management teams, Dana Ardi identifies a pivotal evolutionary moment: the decline of the traditional Alpha model (the top-down, male-dominated, authoritarian, corner-office heirarchy that has ruled organizational landscapes for so long), as it is replaced by collaboration, connectivity, and the sharing of power.
