The Uncommon Man: The Individual In The Organization (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781104849788)

The Uncommon Man: The Individual In The Organization is a book written by Crawford H. Greenewalt, an American businessman and former CEO of the DuPont Company. The book explores the importance of individuality in the workplace, and how it can contribute to the success of an organization. Greenewalt argues that too often, organizations prioritize conformity and uniformity over individuality, resulting in a lack of innovation and creativity. He uses examples from his own experiences at DuPont to illustrate how embracing individuality can lead to new ideas and solutions. The book also delves into the concept of leadership, and how effective leaders can empower their employees to be their best selves while still working towards common goals. Greenewalt emphasizes the need for leaders to listen to and value the opinions of their team members, rather than simply dictating orders. Overall, The Uncommon Man is a thought-provoking read that challenges traditional notions of how organizations should operate. It encourages readers to embrace their unique qualities and contributions, and to work together in a way that allows everyone to thrive.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
