Inhaltsangabe

The problems of business in the real world are addressed here. The aim is to help managers devise and implement down-to-earth, practical strategies they can use to cope with the onrushing forces of change. Its approach is a radical one: do not attempt to manage change; instead manage action. Using an exclusive, in-depth survey conducted by MORI on behalf of Price Waterhouse Coopers, covering 500 businesses on four continents, the authors study successful action projects at companies like Lufthansa, NYNEX and Braun. They identify the top 10 barriers that these action initiatives have encountered, and outline robust strategies to overcome them.

Aus dem Klappentext

Action Management identifies four action paths: the sprint, the high jump, the decathlon, and the marathon. From short and fast to long and far-reaching, each path combines action complexity and duration to meet and cope with change at all levels. The authors take managers through the action process from start to finish and help them determine how the four action paths will help them achieve their immediate and long-term goals. The practical advice and battle-tested strategies found in this valuable book address the problems of managers in the real world, where standing still means falling behind, and where actions such as acquisitions, expansions, and downsizings can ruin a company if the action itself is not managed properly.

Action Management provides:

The best tools and thinking from PriceWaterhouseCoopers, the leading global consultants to companies managing major change.

Profiles of the action plans of Siemens, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Neiman Marcus, and many more.
