Wiki Management: Peer to Peer Beats Top Down Hierarchies

Rod Collins recently published a book on leadership. It is called ‘Leadership in a Wiki World’. The essential thesis of the book is that in our new digital age, which we have been in for about a decade or two, the technologies we use will require a significant transformation in the management technologies of the way we run businesses.
