Contemporary Management

Consider the story of George Ohr. In the 1880s he immersed himself in pottery, learning as much as he could about the craft. His apprenticeship taught him how to use the natural resources around his hometown, and where to dig for clay from the nearby river banks. However when he opened his own studio and sat down at the potter's wheel, he questioned everything about what a pot should look like. His answers were at once creative and innovative. And his pots looked nothing like the current work at the time. By defying convention, he was sometimes scorned and his work often went unnoticed. But today George Ohr's pots are revered for their creativity, beauty, and inventiveness.Jones, Gareth R., Sr. is the author of 'Contemporary Management', published 2005 under ISBN 9780073049212 and ISBN 0073049212.
