As such they come into being, live through lifecycle stages, and can experience organizational health and various forms of organizational illness along the way. If the latter is frequent or extended, such organizations often die an untimely death. A services perspective can go a long way to combat this outcome and assist in maintaining organizational health. Allowing this perspective to permeate an organization induces a consideration of its genuine value and leads to a greater understanding of the breadth of stakeholders who are the beneficiaries of it. Productivity and services in an organization are symbiotic and must be so in order to achieve the balance that is key to the health of each organization. A services perspective illuminates as well the pivotal role that business-to-business service providers play in ensuring that balance is achieved and maintained. This book explores these factors from the point of view of the business leader and anyone concerned with the health of any organization. 001366219 588__ $$aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on November 25, 2015). 001366219 650_0 $$aOrganizational resilience. 001366219 650_0 $$aIndustrial management. 001366219 650_0 $$aCorporate culture. 001366219 653__ $$aB2B services 001366219 653__ $$abusiness culture 001366219 653__ $$abusiness diagnostics 001366219 653__ $$abusiness health 001366219 653__ $$abusiness language 001366219 653__ $$abusiness leaders 001366219 653__ $$aliving enterprise 001366219 653__ $$aorganization leaders 001366219 653__ $$aservice innovation 001366219 653__ $$aservices 001366219 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001366219 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781631572760 001366219 830_0 $$aService systems and innovations in business and society collection.$$x2326-2699 001366219 852__ $$bebk 001366219 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete $$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=4009428$$zOnline Access 001366219 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1366219$$pGLOBAL_SET 001366219 980__ $$aBIB 001366219 980__ $$aEBOOK 001366219 982__ $$aEbook 001366219 983__ $$aOnline
