Getting Partnering Right

"In this book, Rackham, Friedman, and Ruff clear through the thicket of buzzwords and general concepts, and describe what real companies are doing to build long-term competitive advantage through partnering relationships. A practical, "how-to" book for suppliers, it details the best practices of dozens of market-leading partnering organizations. Based on a two-year research study at over a hundred successful companies, this is the source book you need to make partnering a reality - and a success - for your company."--BOOK JACKET.
