R. Biasca & Asoc. is a small and prestigious Argentine consulting firm that built its reputation with its work in the Organizational Improvement and Change field.
Rodolfo Biasca is one of the Argentine management gurus. His book Productivity gave him publicity in the 80s and his books Resizing and Change Management were best-sellers in Latin America in the 90s. A new, up-dated set of three new books were published in 2000-2001 and reprinted in 2004. During year 2005, a reduced version in one volume was published in the US as book and e-book. There is no Spanish speaking author that has published so extensively in the subject.
The firm is involved in consulting since 1976 and management training since 1972. More than 120 companies in Argentina and other countries can give references.
Biasca & Associates has always been in a field that we can call by different names: improvement, change, and business transformation, organizational effectiveness.
