Finally a practical business book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Finally, thank heaven, there is a practical management book that was written by people who clearly have real life, in-the-trenches, experiences at all levels of the corporate ladder. Absent from this book are the feel good, pie in the sky, out of touch recommendations so prevalent in contemporary management writings. Any recommendations to changing a business culture comes with clear instructions to orchestrating the change. Checklists are used effectively throughout the book facilitating execution and ensuring significant bottom-line benefits. The diet metaphor is wonderfully used. The similarities between achieving sustainable results on a persoanl diet and achieving sustainable results in a business organization become so striking when you read this book that you'll never forget them. Supply chain management concepts are masterfully reviewed. When, how, and to what degree outsourcing is appropriate is meticulously covered. If everyone enrolled in an MBA program were to have a course dedicated to the concepts used in this book, productivity would improve world-wide. A GREAT BOOK!!
