Product Details Hardcover: 176 pages Publisher: The MIT Press (October 31, 2008) Language: English ISBN-10: 0262220857 ISBN-13: 978-0262220859 Product Dimensions: 9 x 6.9 x 1 inches Shipping Weight: 1.1 pounds (View shipping rates and policies) |

Seriously! It’s a genre I adopted - take ideas and concepts and explain them in stories that are for the most part true save names, dates and other trivial figures...

If it is good enough for HBS its good enough for DPS!
ISO is so "90's", today its all about 'value contribution', 'reliability', 'cost avoidance' and 'value proposition'... Oh ya, lets not forget GREEN.
