"Think Big, Act Small is about ten companies in the United States of America that are successful in keeping true to the standards and ethos that made them they way the are and how being adaptive conscious to the times really made them successful and has driven them to do better and be better and change the world and their companies to be leaders and to be truthful and dedicated to the company and employees as well as the customers that they serve. They are honest. They are modest. They are true. They are loved. They take initiative. They are resourceful. They are caring. They are trendsetting." ( ) An amazing piece for research work, 'Think Big, Act Small' examines the reasons for the success of the most successful companies (in terms of growth and profit). It shows that these companies developed eerily similar strategies and behaviors independently from each other and across all kinds of company sizes and business domains. I recommend it for the advanced entrepreneur/leader. The latest insightful and inspirational title from Jennings (Less Is More; ...It's the Fast That Eat the Slow) again demonstrates potential profitability in contrary concepts. Offering engaging case studies of nine of the country's best performing (if unfamiliar) businesses, Jennings identifies 10 practices they all have in common, which, he argues, catapulted them into the rarefied category of increasing profits and revenue by 10% or more for at least 10 consecutive years. They cut across a wide spectrum of enterprises, but all, according to Jennings, have "nailed the fundamentals." Ten bullet-pointed and chart-summarized chapters with prescriptive titles present the basics that these prosperous business have mastered and asserts that others who apply the principles will also fatten their bottom lines. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Tradition says there are three ways to grow a company's revenue: fire up the sales team with empty promises, cut costs and downsize, or cook the books. But what if there's a better way -- a way that nine amazingly profitable and well-run companies are already embracing. Jason Jennings and his research team screened more than 100,000 American companies to find nine that rarely end up on magazine covers, yet have increased revenues and profits by 10 percent or more for ten consecutive years. Then they interviewed the leaders, workers and customers of these quiet superstars to find the secrets of their astoundingly consistent and profitable growth. Jennings discovered that consistent high performance takes more than locker-room speeches to the sales team. What these companies have in common is a culture based on a shockingly simple precept: Think big, but act small. It works for retailers like PETCO and Cabela's, manufactures like Medline Industries, service companies like Sonic Drive-In, private educational companies like Strayer, and industrial giants like Koch Enterprises. In Think Big, Act Small, Jennings reveals the unique power of combining the strengths of a big organization with the hunger of a start-up. Any company, no matter what its size or industry, can benefit from following these examples. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
