Deep Smarts: How to Cultivate and Transfer Enduring Business Wisdom

by Dorothy Leonard-barton

Deep Smarts: How to Cultivate and Transfer Enduring Business Wisdom Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Addressing a topic of increasing importance as the Boomer generation retires, "Deep Smarts" challenges leaders to take a hands-on approach to managing the experience-based knowledge shaping the future of their organizations.

Book News Annotation:

Based on a multiyear research project observing and interviewing coaches and proteges in startups and mature firms, Leonard (business administration, emerita, Harvard Business School) and Swap (psychology, emeritus, Tufts U.) describe how the experience-based wisdom they call deep smarts drives organizational competitiveness as well as personal success. They show how managers can identify who has deep smarts, and how the knowledge can be cultivated and leveraged across an organization, resulting in an advantage that's hard for other firms to copy.
