This is really amazing. Grew up professionally reading ‘In search of excellence’, really engaging conversation with a sage. Also amazing how corporate caring is an alien concept …
Really interesting interview. Tom was obviously smart enough to see behind these symbolic management cues to understand how the companies were fundamentally different from others, which gave them a competitive advantage.
Tom is my favorite author by a country mile! Little Big Things and Excellence Dividend permanently changed the trajectory of my career. Great interview!!! Thank you for everything Mr. Peters.
Thank God for this interview I'm a HR technology and Strategy consultant and go crazy with the old structures we sometimes find in old school companies

wanted to like this but a very lightweight interview, not much was actually said and I still cant figure out why he was at odds with Mckinsey? He did work there for 5 years. After he published his book. most of the examples of excellent companies he cited failed spectacularily. Maybe people who are good at business stay in business instead of writing books?
