Complexity: How to Turn a Problem into a Strength |
Companies are
ever striving for profitability. And in doing so try to reduce the
complexity they have been building up during the last years. The

not pay for, by exploiting to the fullest complexity that customers
will pay for, and by reducing to the minimum the costs of any
complexity companies offer. pdf-file 181 KB. 2004 |
