About a month before Microsoft made a splash with plans to expand its 170-person Beijing research center by 20%, France Telecom announced last June that it would open an R.-and-D. facility in Beijing. Cisco CEO John Chambers announced plans to hire 100 people for a new research center by early 2006. The push into China is driven by more than human resources.

...rely on the rhetoric of leadership alone. Gardner uses British Petroleum as a prime example: CEO John Browne turned the oil giant around by challenging frontline managers to solve existing problems and giving them time and consultants to create solutions.
