| The essays explore books ranging from big think (Edward Lawler on
Corporate Governance) to lightweight (Michael Schrage on Management
Porn -- books light on ideas but heavy on commercialism). British writers
Stuart Crainer and Des Dearlove look back on twenty years of influence from
the business classic In Search of Excellence. |
| Many business books start by asserting that some new precept or technique
will lead to success. Then they try to prove their point. This book started
from a different direction: It studied only companies whose stock
performance, over a 15-year period, went from being nondescript to outpacing
the general market. Collins and his team of researchers found only 11
companies that achieved this out of the 1,435 they examined; the many
counterintuitive findings on why these companies made the leap from good to
great are sure to spur dialogue for decades to come. |
| The Best Books of the Millennium special issue of strategy+business
magazine will explore in-depth how books have been the driving force behind
innovation, strategy, and management throughout the decades. |
| 4. The Strategy-Focused Organization: How Balanced Scorecard Companies
Thrive in the New Business Environment, by Robert S. Kaplan and David P.
Norton, Harvard Business School Press, 2000 |
