Summary
This book put forth a simple thesis. The authors suggest that the best run organizations have a visionary leader and an integrator. The former is responsible for direction, ideas, and innovation. The latter focuses on execution. The book lays out an approach to structuring organizations for success by delineating these roles, how the two serve best, what other roles are necessary, and how these two very different leaders work well together.
