Book excerpt: The original hardback edition of The New Workplace examined modern business terms such as total quality management, just-in-time production, e-business, lean manufacturing and teleworking. It explored what these terms really mean and what effect they have in practice - especially their impact on productivity and performance and their social and psychological consequences.

It will focus on working practices, especially technology orientated ones, which are the most relevant and innovative for consultants.
