33 of the world's best business minds tackle one urgent question: What does it really take to make your organization remarkable?
Most organizations are stuck in a rut. On one hand, they understand all the good things that will come with growth.

It struck a huge chord and stayed on the Business-Week bestseller list for nearly two years. You can hear countless brainstorming meetings where people refer to purple cows and say things like, 'That's not good enough. We need to create a big moo!'
