Business Week has an interesting article on the pros and cons of the "cut salaries rather than enact layoffs" approach to reducing costs being taken by many firms in this recession.
I am a professor of management at Bryant University in Smithfield, RI. I joined the faculty at Bryant after six years as a faculty member at Harvard Business School. I've also spent time as a Visiting Professor at NYU's Stern School of Business.
My research, teaching, and consulting focuses on strategic decision-making processes and senior management teams. My recent book, Know What You Don't Know: How Great Leaders Prevent Problems Before They Happen,(Wharton School Publishing, 2009) offers practical insights for managers based on this research. The book focuses on how leaders can become more effective "problem-finders" - hunting down the festering issues that could erupt into major catastrophes in their organization.
